[Bf-committers] Feature Request: Per-polygon properties

[Ton Roosendaal]

Hi,

Hrms... for inclusion in the main release we should choose a completely  
different strategy, especially evaluating opportunities with Python.

It would mean developing a generic system to extend existing Blender  
data. I would welcome a proposal for it, but it won't be simple...

The advantage of my quick hack is that you can quickly get it released.  
Merging code can also be automated quite some, since you can minimalize  
changes in Blender, and just add a few C files...

My advice is to not integrate it, and help us getting the specs right  
for a major improvement of the exporting/extension system in current  
Blender, or for new Blender 3.0...
