Sort of, but my (initial) idea was to convert the stuff into
Objective-C methods which are declared in the renderer class and

we should just take what is there - in C (for the sake of
compatibility and performance).
Ok, the C API is interesting and necessary because we need to code
efficiently in the core of 3D object in certain case.
This bring in my head the comparison with NSBezierPath, we need low
and high level API to draw geometry : in certain case I use the
NSBezierPath method to draw Quartz elements and in othe cases I need
to go down the CG... functions.
