Looking great so far, Thomas!

Will you be using area_illuminating area_lights for this?

You won't be using radiosity, though? Low-res, fading area_lights at each source
for bounced light wouldn't hurt, though it will most definitely make the render
times higher...

You probably already know this, but when area_lights and focal blur are
combined, you can reduce the area_light samples if jittering is enabled...

The final render is going to look awesome :)
