I don't know of such a function. You could try to "hack" you on function
around others, like cloud() in package lattice or scatterplot3d() in the
identically called package. Neither way will be easy or even very
promising.
As always, contributions are welcome, but if you are just going to
produce a few of these plots, I'd suggest to switch to another software
for that purpose.
