Maybe it's time to straighten up the MPD standard. In (URL) it says: "So far, there are no clear scoping or namespace rules on MPD files. If you put a file named stud.dat in your MPD file, don't be surprised to see your stud.dat file appear on the (...) (15 years ago, 2-Apr-10, to lugnet.cad)

(...) For transparency, LDView sorts triangles, and only triangles, not parts. So the centroid of each triangle is (p1 + p2 + p3) * (1/3).
