Hello.
Do the core team plans to add new device procedure
for 3D drawing in the NewDevDesc struct ?

There are no concrete plans that I know of for making additions to the hard-coded list of device procedures in the NewDevDesc struct in the near future. Some of us have talked about providing an extension mechanism so that it is possible for third-party code to add to the list of device procedures (without having to recompile R), but are only at the stage of deciding that this would be a nice thing to do.

Ok.
The glx device is pretty advanced with the 2D stuff and I'm thinking
about the 3D stuff.
In a first time I would replace coordinates parameters with a list which
hold the coordinates.
To be less intrusive I'm going to clone old procedures in new one with
this coordinates list.
I'll keep you informed about this device,
