Please let me know what you find that you don't like when you consider
Sage more carefully. We very much want Sage to be an excellent
friendly piece of software for students, but of course much work remains
to be done.

Thanks! By the way, your Python library
http://www.soton.ac.uk/~juzi/software_povraython.html
looks very interesting, and might make sense for inclusion in Sage.
How does it work? Does it write a scene description file and call povray?
