I don't know if Bertrand Lempereur is a member of this forum. He uses Houdini to do this type of stuff

how come no one is interested to make such thing ? or is it just too hard to think of?

You are a bit funny I don't know if it is my lack of understanding english or english humor ?

Some funny answers could be :

* take some wires and weld them

* Pay someone to do the job. 

* Begin to make an algorithm and try it.

Now I am a bit more serious. Yes it is interesting. There are some scripts not to far from your need. Search with wrap, walking on mesh, winding ... But here it is not on (surface) but in (volume). Here is my 2 cents with a script I have. It is on surface but it must not be to difficult to transform it on volume.

Seed a volume with point(s) (depending on desnity ?). 

Make some trails with a logic, walk on a direction during XX mm, turn at XX°+/-YY° with a random roll, if outside volume turn 180° or close ...
