I saw this in the morning before embarking on a lengthy
train ride so I've been playing with this on my netbook.
I missed the rest of the discussion but also came to the
conclusion that adding photon blocks would be ok ;)

I wasn't quite sure whether not changing the objects meant
you couldn't add any object to the scene. Using radiosity is
a bit sad if the environment is completely black, so I added
a blueish dome with ambient > 0 around the scene, which I
suppose is still in the spirit of lighting the thing.

Due to the 3.6 directive I wasn't sure about 3.7 features
either (mainly HDRI and area_illumination) so I left them out
for now. I didn't have any HDRI images available anyway ;)
I also skipped focal blur as it's strictly speaking not
a lighting but a camera effect.
