Yes, I think it would be easy to promote some conformal comments for DXF and/or Wavefront. It's something that could be slipped in by a programmer without management approval. 🙂 Just give the standard extentions a name "DXF Enhanced" for example, something to put on a checkbox in a dialog. You could also merely standardize the way the concept of polygon should be represented in DXF. Believe it or not, there is little agreement about this, which explains why DXF is a poor or at least unreliable method of moving 3D data between programs.
