Maybe we should create a MaterialSwitcherVolume which behaves like a
Volume, but has a dictionary for replacing materials. e.g. {
old_material : new_material } ?

I think you can do :
forward = soya.Vector(self, 0,0,-1)
forward.convert_to(self.get_root())

obj2.look_at(soya.Vector(obj1, 0,0,-1))

I've activated the bugtracker for Soya on Gna!
