How come that in the scene below the box with rgbft 1 is white and has a 
white shadow?

#version 3.1;
global_settings {assumed_gamma 1.0}
light_source {<500,500,-500> rgb 1}
camera {location<0,0,-5> look_at<0,0,0>}

box {
   <-2,-2,0>,<2,2,0.1>
   pigment {rgb 1}
}

box {
   <-1,-1,-1>,<1,1,-0.9>
   pigment {rgbft 1}
}

You're setting filter to 1 *and* transmit to 1, so double-intensity light is
actually going through to the 'shadow'. That'd be my guess.
