The renderer seems to offer a relatively quick and easy fix  for Ds3A users to get some nice quality output (low priced alternative to exporting to a higher end app).  Several asked why this wasn't possible for Poser. The answer by Pret-A-3d:

*"Can't be done. Not easily. The typical scene in Poser or Studio has a pretty high number of polys. To handle all the export requirement you need C++ or you'll be waiting a looong time. I did some testing at the beginning and it was clear that an interpreted language was putting a huge bottleneck in this. Poser doesn't have a C++ API. The python interpreter has two main disadvantages: it's not fast enough and it can't be protected. Anybody writing commercial software needs to protect the work both from unauthorized eyes and from the possibility of having the code being altered by the user. The second possibility will cause all kind of tech support problems.

Right now the Poser route is not acceptable for the professional software designer. What Daz has done with Studio is the right answer. A core product that can be extended with a plugin system that is both powerful and flexible and a scripting interface in JavaScript that can be encrypted for security and protection of IP."*

Has there been any talk about Poser updating it's plugin architecture?  Is this possible or even practical?
