Yes, I don't believe I care about that and I think the use of "extinction 0"
in the scattering section turns that wonderful feature off anyway...?

That sounds great!!!!

Now how would you go about doing that? I want the emitting media to look
exacly like a spotlight would in scattering media and I would even like to
have parameters like "radius", "falloff", and "tightness".

I would love to hear any suggestions on how to make this happen!
