I see a nice way to produce 3D models non-interactively. The models 
can be exported as a mesh in STL format. This allows for import to 
blender for super naturalistic rendering. Goal number one achieved :-)

I don't see a work flow to 3D construction apps. There is DXF output. 
But this is 2D, only. So goal number two seems out of reach. Is there 
a STEP export in the pipeline?
