  -QR setting

I'm sorry if this has been discussed before, but I couldn't find much 
when I searched with the web interface.

It used to be that radiosity could be turned on and off from the command 
line with +QR/-QR, but not anymore. Is this really the way most people 
would like to have it?

I find that it's convenient to have a radiosity block with all kinds of 
setting in it, and then have a simple way to toggle rendering with or 
without radiosity (especially since I have a program which generates POV 
files). IMHO, the best alternative would be to be able to disable 
radiosity with -QR, but to have it on by default, if there is a 
radiosity block in the scene file.

But maybe this behaviour is not likely to be changed again.
