I certainly have dreams of doing something like that but I have quite a
ways to go befor I'm ready to start tackling such a project (both with
gaining familiarity with POV Ray and practice with Perl).

I would certainly be more interested in trying to setup renderer neutral
language and then support the particular progys through modulse (kindof
like DBI?).  Would Renderman be a good candidate for this?
