This is something I've been wondering for a long time.  The docs say: 
"Also note that shadowless lights will not cause highlights on the 
illuminated objects."

Now, I understand shadowless lights are meant to be used as fill lights, 
and having fill lights cause highlights is often not desired, but there 
are situations (and I seem to run into them a lot) where a 
highlight-causing-shadowless-light_source would be quite useful.

Wouldn't it make more sense to have a separate way of turning off 
highlights for a light_source, independant of it's (lack of) casting 
shadows?

cu!
