This is just something I ran across somewhere without actually researching, 
but I understood that the difference between a "metallic" reflection and a 
"non-metallic" reflection is whether the reflection still has colors. I.e., 
a reflection off a surface that looks metallic will reflect at least some of 
the colors, while a reflection off (say) plastic will be various shades of 
the color of the plastic itself.  (Isn't this what the "metallic" keyword in 
POV-ray does too?)
