  That's a good idea, but I wonder if the 'photons' block should
be a part of the 'material' block...

  How would this look like?

material
{ texture { ... }
  interior { ... }
  photons { ... }
}

  OTOH this would introduce the problem of a material which always is
a target for photons even when you don't want to. There should perhaps
be a way of turning it off for specific objects...
