Getting plib to load Blender files would be great!
Having a native loader is nearly always a better solution.

The only downside is that they tend to be rather large as they contain a lot 
of info that we don't use and I'm not sure if they can be stripped down.
This may cause a size issue if we have thousands of models of buildings, 
trees, bridges, etc.
Blender files are about 2.5 times smaller if you gzip them though.

P.S. Merry Christmas everyone
