The ability to do this is standard in OSG. :-)

Given the choice between a CISC-like bunch of baked in functionality with
default behavior that is difficult to modify, and a set of RISC-like
flexible tools that allow my app to use it in many ways, I guess I'd choose
the latter. That being said, if you think that this functionality is
something that people will need in the future, you could take the time to
create some kind of custom clip plane hole-filling decorator node, and
contribute it back to OSG.

If you are not fluent in OSG, OpenGL, use of stencil, and this algorithm in
particular, then it might be challenging for you. If it's something you
really need done now, then you should consider a contractor. I'd say a
standalone demo could be coded in a few hours by someone familiar with
stencil but has never implemented this before, and maybe even faster by
someone who is completely fluent in 3D graphics. It's really quite a simple
algorithm.

(Disclaimer: This is not a formal quote. :-) I'm too busy to take this on
right now. :-) It will take a non-zero amount of overhead time for a
contractor to spin up on your app. Time estimate will vary depending on your
requirements. Etc. Etc.)
