This is my current main whinge about object graphics, which, as I
dig deeper, increasingly betrays a bias towards solids modelling at
the expense of other easily-implemented applications. For all the
reasons outlined in my surface plotting pages I would like to be able
to specify independent colours for ploygon edges and fills when
plotting surfaces. It would also be nice to be able to specify an
object model as a linestyle, just as you can plot a polyline with an
object model used as a symbol at each vertex.

Just dreaming
