Personally, I'm not convinced it's a good idea.  Doing NURBS right is
hard (particularly mating trim curves) - people would be better off
using Rhino & exporting triangles as appropriate.  Would NURBS really be
in keeping with the intent of Aztec?  Would effort be better spent in
making modelling tools?
