Should be okay for camera to subject distances of around 10 units. I just
neglected to mention that before. Other scene scales will certainly need
more adjustments made.

Curiously, I think I've stumbled across a bug about spherical patterned
(only global?) media that shows itself when using a spotlight along with
sky_sphere or background color. Posting about it to the povray.general group
to get any feedback about it. Summed up, it blanks out the background where
the spotlight passes through the media.
