Bon Jour Jean-Sebastien,
 
I still have more work to do on this but so far I find the dirt material and the noise controller of Karl's to be quite useful.
 
There is a landscape example in RS3D ... samples/scene_templates/island ... which I have yet to study and I think it might be way forward for me. The guts of this is a terrain material which is maybe what you are after.
 
I had thought of using Zaug's greebles to get some terrain elements randomly assigned to the main mesh but have yet test this. I think Matthias was looking into mountainscapes and the examples he posted were spectacular.
 
One way I was thinking of selected mesh faces at different "altitudes" in ortho horizontal view. While I have had no luck with assigning bumps to selected faces due to being unable to smooth the progression to the edges of the faces selected because of interpolation limits, I have been able to use colour materials and, as mentioned have yet to use this method with Zaug's greebles to assign specific objects to such "strata".
 
It's not something I have completed in any way, but the above is as far as I have gone at this stage. Sorry can't be more help.

So no one on this list know how to create a terrain material ?
