Quote - Is there anything completely unique about the Poser material nodes that would prevent your core functionality from being re-engineered into a different shader system? Or...is there a way to bake procedural results into a bit-mapped texture?

Yes to the first - at least in the simple 1:1 conversion sense, although most heavy duty renderers have an extensible shading system and he could write whatever shader he wanted; and no to the second.
