Expect progress to be slow. I'm over-committed without this. But, I'd
really like to see it happen. And, I don't think the programming is going to
be very ugly.

I expect that extending the AoI interface will be simpler. A rendering
engine isn't really that difficult. The complexity is in file handling and UI.
3D rendering is pretty straight-forward. And, the ldr file format is more
renderer friendly than user friendly.
