I wrote out a generic implementation for an always-included set of files.

A few things not yet implemented due to not having the code readily available.

Just a proof-of-concept, I'm sure that some things might be best loaded from
other dedicated include files, (best would be inbuilt as source), though I'm
still trying to work out a good way to have a "monolithic include file" where
only the desired parts will actually be loaded/implemented.

I think that a calculation for minimum visible size/radius would be a good
addition, as would an always-face-the-camera macro.
