Onshape Graphics

I've been a CAD user for 17 years. I've had the pleasure of using several CAD packages (i.e. Solidworks, Autodesk Inventor, Fusion 360, NX, Creo Parametrics etc.). I wanted to know if Onshape has any plans on updating their 3D Modeling Environment graphics (Comparable with Solidworks, Fusion 360, Autodesk Inventor)? The aforementioned CAD platforms has the ability to add reflections, shadows (ambient, ground etc.), photo-realistic displays.

I personally believe if Onshape had comparable graphics, it would propel the Onshape brand further.

If there was rendering workspace inside Onshape, it needs to be comparable to Keyshot etc. Or that should be where it's aiming at least.
That would be totally awesome to use cloud power and live model for render!
I would rather have the current graphics to support speed for design purposes, so I wouldn't want these added as a default setting - but can appreciate its use.
And if we had such, I would probably keep it in another window and work with model on simplified graphics (current).
Similar approach could be applied for exploded view..

I know it's got to be on the roadmap, and hope it's coming sometime soon.
