[Papervision3D] Performance with interactive materials

[M. Kalthoff]

well yeah,

i you pass a materialslist you know your materials and can manipulate
them directly. if not, you have to identify the material by a property
you do know.

"my_DAE_model.material" is an empty material of the internal wrapping
DO3D. so any changes on this don't have any effect.

so, if you want to alter a specific material which is actually used, you 
gotta go down to face-level and compare, for example, the name-property.

do3d.geometry.faces[0].material.name should somehow equal the material 
in the DAE <material>-tags.

but that's from memory, could be wrong. gotta look up how i actually did 
it when i come back from work.

c ya
