   Things I would love to find out how to do (more easily? at all?) in Blender:

   - Apply a colormap in the preview or the renderer
   - Set the sample count to be locally determined by voxel size
   - Write a python node for batching math operations
   - Have a "describe" node for inputs/outputs in the geometry node canvas (i.e., min, max)

   These are likely all things that are possible, perhaps even easy! But coming at Blender from a sciviz background has a strangely impressive impedance mismatch.

     @powersoffour Maybe try reaching out to Robert Hurt at IPAC? I'm pretty sure that he uses Blender for sci-viz of the more public-facing kind
