Sometimes I render the entire image with low rad settings good enough for
most objects in the scene, and then I re-rendering with higher settings the
parts that look ugly (Poser models' faces typically look terrible and
blotchy with low rad settings). After that it's just a matter of cut and
paste. From a practical point of view that's equivalent to having the whole
radiosity block subject to a sort of "map", and the possibility of doing
that in POV-Ray itself would be nice.
