It seems that this is poor documentation at work.

sage: P.show3d(engine='tachyon')

works fine, but it isn't obvious from

sage: P.show3d?

that one has to specify this.  Apparently jmol isn't rendering this,
at least not on Macs.  Someone more knowledgeable about Jmol will
hopefully reply with more details, but in the meantime the tachyon
plotter should do at least some of what you want.
