I think that equals to GOOD particle system, complemented with true
transparency mapping. Which means that if you object is
transparent, it is. No matter if ray has bounced 8 times already or
not.
And who is Ray anyway? And why is he always bounced? ;-)

Yes, that could be useful. As well as import of course.

Discreet has done this with couple of plugins as well. They buy the
the stuff and make it integrate totally into main product. Spline
modeling (bezier patches in 3dsmax, don't confuse with lofting in
carrara. Similar to AM modeling tools) are a one example. In one
version it was available as plugin and in next version it was
integrated and improved.
