It's funny you should ask that now; I just stayed up all last night working on isosurface capabilities. I'm in contact with the folks from jmol about it---they have some very nice isosurface capabilities built-in that we could take advantage of. Of course, we already have 2d vector field plots, and I have a function that I use for 3d vector field plots, which I'd be happy to share. We already a very nice facility for doing interactive displays, which we call interacts. Also you can install Mayavi2 (http://code.enthought.com/projects/mayavi/ ) as an optional part of Sage. As you know, Mayavi provides very nice and sophisticated visualization capabilities. Sage also already incorporates a 3d raytracer that generates very nice plots as well.
