User-level control of the display is at the level of (1) either the
panel function, which is somewhat non-trivial for the 3-D functions,
or (2) the 'panel.3d.wireframe' function (for wireframe), where you
can basically do anything after the axes and the transformations have
been set up. There are examples both in the book and on the
r-help/r-devel lists. Let me know if you need help in figuring out any
specific details (such as how to omit the default bounding box by
setting its color to transparent).
