Thanks.  This specific issue has been bouncing around in my head for a long
time.

Yes, I figured I'd get into cutaway_textures if there were problems, as I know
it doesn't always work as I expect it to.

The other idea I had was to use either the object texture, or to turn the object
into an isosurface, which should completely scrub any texture information - CSG
or not - since it's an object that gets generated from scratch.

One other option, albeit more challenging, is to generate a mesh from the object
- like Chris Young did with his Christmas ornament for 3D printing, and use the
resulting mesh.
