> I was playing with radiosity, because it's fun :), and suddenly I thought of
something: radiosity-effects are added to the current color of the pixel, radiosity
can never make a pixel darker than it would be without radiosity.  So if you're not
rendering to a HDRI, and if clipping is done before anti-aliasing (which, I know,
isn't at the moment), POV-Ray could actually stop doing it's radiosity-calculations
once a pixel has become completely white (or has become "close enough" to completely
white).

What about some negative pigment? or negative ambient? Those can darken your
surrounding pixels.
Also, if you have a recursion_limit of more than 1, pixels whiter than white will
illuminate the 
surrounding area more than those that are "only" white.
