It would, but in keeping with my usual principle of making things as flexible
as possible, I'd prefer to see this functionality implemented as a separate
function that returns the color of a given texture at a given location, since
then it's not tied to an actual object.  I know that that patch has been 
written, more than once, so I'm surprised it's not in MegaPOV.
