i just thought of an interesting idea that would TEMPORARILY solve the 'decal
lines' problem: have an option for l3p to check the input for linetype 2's, and
make a REEEALY thin cylinder instead of a line.
it should be a command line option, because it will make the rest of the
rendering look a LOT worse, because of the "edge" line 2s on regular bricks.
(it may be possible with decals to have a sub-option to simply ignore linetype
2's with a color value of 24 [brick edges], but that means the car wash brush
[and the shutters] still won't work right, although special cases could be made
for references to them, but that gets complicated)
