  Focal blur confidence

Am I the only one who thinks that the confidence value in the focal blur
is not scaled very well? The default value (if I remember right, 0.9) is
not very good, and every time I want decent focal blur, I have to set it
to something like 0.9999 and I still get a bit of graininess. So 0.9999 seems
to be a minimum to get decent focal blur; 0.9 is not enough; all the values
below 0.9 are completely useless.
  This may be too late, but I think that it should be scaled better. For
example 0.5 would be the default value and it would give the same quality as
the current 0.9, and the quality which you get currently with 0.9999 would
be got with something like 0.9 or 0.95 or something.
