This is exactly what I'm talking about. It would be nice if you could apply
decals to surfaces. Each decal would be scalable and have a transparent
color or better yet an alpha channel to determine decal visibility. All
transparent regions would show the underlying surface attributes.
You can do this by using Attached polygons with a different surface name but
Modeler on the PC crashes if you try to display it in the preview window.
