Comment (by jason):

 The transparency issues are not fixed---those are inherent in how three.js
 draws things, and stem from limitations of webgl (there are experiements
 overcoming them in webgl, which might be interesting to look at, though;
 the author of mathbox is looking at them, for example).

 I think that anything "pushed to standard" should be supported by SMC and
 the sage cell.  Right now, the pythreejs solution requires an
 communication framework that is/emulates the ipython comm/widget
 framework.  Something like that would need to be implemented for SMC to
 get it to work there.  I think that would be a great project in itself,
 though---there is starting to be some good development of interactive
 things for the IPython notebook, and it would be great to use those things
 from SMC too.
