If you're talking about the technical possibility, yes, since it's
specified by Adobe, it can be done, I imagine.  And a third-party gem
to do this (prawn-u3d), would be welcome.

But if you're talking about how we should include this feature because
it's an important feature for a PDF generator, well.. I disagree
there.  I have no plans to fully support the PDF specification (it's
massive), and the fact that there are no open-source (or even
commercial) applications that seem to support this feature other than
Adobe's own acrobat reader makes me very uninterested in supporting it
directly in Prawn.
