First, it would not always be the case that the background would even
require any AA at all. With soft backgrounds I think that object
specific AA could work pretty seamlessly.

Second, if a little AA was required for the background too, there can
still be a huge difference between low-quality AA and high-quality AA.

I think object-specific AA could work well. The biggest problem as I see
it would be to make bounding objects that were tight enough so that not
too many calculations are wasted...
