It will be possible to easily integrate a 3D footprint preview, after merge my 
branch with the new 3D viewer development. 
On my branch there is already a 3d preview to align 3d shapes with footprint. 

Any news on this merge ? 
Regards, 
Mario Luzeiro

It might be advantageous to also display some of the properties of the
footprint, like is done for the schematic symbols in Henner's dialog
for eeschema. This becomes three things to display if possible;
footprint view, 3d view, properties.
