After some research on QGIS's ability to display .las files, I came to the conclusion that it is not possible: currently any attempt at this requires converting .las to .shp as described here and here.
I am wondering if there is an ongoing effort to make direct .las viewing possible in the main window of QGIS (not a separate 3D window), and more broadly, what the main challenge is from a development perspective? (I'm no expert programmer, so I am looking for a digested explanation if anyone can provide one.)
Are there any similar efforts happening in other opensource GIS software that might be ahead of those of QGIS?
