I'd rather have, and rather see, the "lesser" version of VRay available for PoserPro (such as is available for trueSpace), since the price would be perhaps $300 instead of $1000. Mental Ray would be more. I think VRay is a better fit for Poser because it is (reportedly, I have little experience with it) simpler to get to great results than Mental Ray.
However, if you want to engage these more advanced render engines, there are ways to get there now. There's an inexpensive plugin that lets you export .mdd/pointcloud, you can get to POVRay thru POSE-Ray for free, how about COLLADA or fbx export to a stand-alone engine, etc.
The problem with exporting to these external engines is the dynamic hair.
If VRay Jr. were integrated right into Poser and had no issues with dynamic hair, wow that would be titanic.
