Actually, it's just handled in screen coordinates. Essentially no math. Just checking if the "z" coordinate is within range. The other business has to be done earlier, in Cartesian space, and that is a fairly hefty calculation. I suppose it would be possible with isosurfaces, but we'd have to create a whole new way of doing "ands" and "nots" and "ors" -- all that logic with isosurface verticies to do it right. I don't know, maybe it's possible.
