  Why? (Except for just the sake of achieving it, even it's extremely slow
and not very useful.)
  It's like making a raytracer with the SDL of POV-Ray. It's slow and not
very useful. It may be fun, but not useful.

  With the include files you get good-looking lensflares of all shapes and
colors easily and it's really fast to render. Not everything has to be
physically correct to look really good.
