I would definitely like the translucency, but how would the flourescence be
used? Ambient can be used to simulate it to some extent. I have attempted to
use transmit to simulate translucency, but that didn't work well, the
background showed through. I think the best solution to that problem, short of
adding a new feature, would be a media, but I am not very good at media yet.
