[QGIS-Developer] Opening, closing and removing 3D Map Views from Python?

[Johannes Kröger (WhereGroup)]

Hi Martin,

thanks for your quick answer :) Dang, that's a shame but totally 
understandable at the current stage. Can't wait for being able to have 
scripting fun with it all! Is this on a roadmap or not planned so far?

There are no interfaces for accessing existing 3D map views either so 
far, correct?

Thanks,
Hannes
