[Papervision3D] Text3D questions 2.0

Hi cool list,

Ok, so I went on a sidestep with my idea...
It's now something like this: http://www.brane-records.com/v2.0/ (click 
on screen and use up/down arrows to zoom in/out)

So I implemented the foggingfilter, but I also fell in love with the 
foggingstuff found here: 
http://www.bukisa.com/articles/34039_papervision-3d-programming-tutorial-enhanced-fog 
(I love blurs.)
I want to add some motion and/or dof blurs to this scene, and as well 
try to keep some performance.

The thing I love about the fogfilter in combo with the Text3D is that 
when the text rotates, the individual letters will be fogged. That's 
really sweet.
When I set useOwnContainer to true on the Text3D objects, the fogging 
filter stops working, so I think I need to write my own fog filter for 
that then.

My questions would be:

- How do I get to the individual letters, so I can fog them 
independantly. As in the fogfilter now.

- How much freedom do I have with my Font-choice? Can I make any Font 
with any setting, to fit into the font3d?

(3.0 questions will be perfomance wise ;) )
