One of the limitations of Permormer 1.x was that the generated image was
orthogonal to the view-point, and that therefore you had to show it in a plane
orthogonal to the real viewer.
Has this feature been changed in performer 2.0? Is it possible to generate
non-orthogonal viewing frustrum?

to illustrate:

        Eye Eye
       /\ /\
      / \ / \
     /____\ / \
   Virtual and physical /_ _---
   projection plane Twisted virtual and
                             Physical plane.

Thanks.

Alex.
