Well, I was not clear here: I mean mosaic-like preview with 
progressive refinement. The refinement should be steered in 
a way that the "interesting parts" appear first. Hence, it 
would work somehow like AA: the algorithm starts with 
9 rendered pixels then decides which of the resulting rectangles 
to subdivide first, etc. In the end, the complete image is rendered 
but you should be able to see the interesting parts earlier.
