How about an option to parse the scene without tracing and just output 
measurements to a text file in the form of say

Inside leg:  0.55 pov units
Chest size:  0.37 pov units

You could probably find out about all the measurements that would be needed
if you speak to someone who makes dresses. 

Or maybe just create a macro paramater that when set to yess will output 
a text file that gives you this information. 

I've just noticed, they've got no knee caps, they've got elbows but not 
knees, (maybe the reason for this has been given in a previous discussion
but I don't remember). 

It's really good to see such resources available for POV, keep up the 
good work.
