It might be useful to have keyword directives available in mappings files, to request special processing.
For example, it would be useful to fit mesh geometries to parametric forms, like spheres, and pass the parametric specifications to the renderers instead of the raw meshes. This would allow some meshes be stored at lower granularity, and reduce rendering variance due approximation of certain shapes.
The directives would be a new step in mappings processing. The output of this step could be any number of modifications to the adjustments document.
Some directives would need to take parameters, for example
fitToForm(myMesh, 'sphere');
