(...) Actually, I'd *much* prefer this response to the alternate (i.e., better this than releasing the "main" file before its subfiles).

OpenGL has glPolygonOffset, which does what you describe by allowing you to move the polygons further away in the Z direction, where the amount they move can depend on the slope of the polygon in the Z direction.
