Oh, but any solution that produce results that to my untrained eye will look
like the AA from POV-Ray 3.5 will be fine by me. I don't feel strongly about
*how* the problem of the jagged edges are solved, just that they are solved
some way or another.

Could you refresh my memory in what exact order things are handled now?
First antialiasing, then gamma-correction, then color clipping? Where does
the non-linear tone mapping fit in? Is it the same as gamma correction?
