  Is this possible without cheating?

Is there some combination of no_image no_reflection tags that will allow an
object to reflect onto one scene element but not onto another? Or some other
method? Like in this sample picture (two images combined) where the blue ball
reflects onto the silver ball but not the red ball. Maybe it would be cool if
the concept of the light_group was extended to a "scene_group" where only
objects in the group reacted with each other regarding reflections, radiosity,
shadows, etc. That might be useful for special effects.

Regards,
Dave Blandston
