But I got kind of stuck trying to decide whether it would be real-time 3D (i.e. OpenGL) or non-real-time (e.g. RenderMan).

What does/would stackbegin and stackend do?
I've been wanting to redesign my backend to use 
stacks for paths, but at a loss of how to nicely
interface it from the ps level.

Also, are the iterators like Carlos's?
