Although physically more reasonable, the pattern approach
probably gives more freedom, just see Edouards sample scene
for variable blurring based on aoi. Also, compatibility
with scenes designed for MegaPOV may be helpful.

Actually you've made me think about possible (mis)uses of other
finishy properties for patterns. Hmmm, diffuse lighting strength
pattern, reflection pattern (distance?), highlight pattern ... ;)

Absolutely! Yes! Thank you indeed!

(...I would like to see the very useful motion blur included too...)

Ok, we are of one mind.
Well, I hope that Christian has no difficulty to contacting Chris Cason.

Yes, well, I thought the preferred method of contact was
posting here anyway so I give the team some time to react
before pestering by mail. Nullus anxietas ;)

I think you better go ahead and contact Chris directly. Or try contacting him
via a post with a clear topic to catch his attention. He may not be reading
each and every post.

To my knowledge, the newsgroups are the preferred method of contact only to
avoid publishing e-mail addresses.

I managed to contact Chris and he thinks it can be
included. I just sent him the modified files, so let's
wait and see how it works out ;)
