what this really needs, I think is possible  ...

not just photon use on/off, but at least 3 options should be devised.

off
low-quality preview ie. fast
quality slow-render


/*
photons {
  spacing <photon_spacing> | count <photons_to_shoot>

  [gather <min_gather>, <max_gather>]
  [media <max_steps> [,<factor>]]
  [jitter <jitter_amount>]
  [max_trace_level <photon_trace_level>]
  [adc_bailout <photon_adc_bailout>]
  [save_file "filename" | load_file "filename"]
  [autostop <autostop_fraction>]
  [expand_thresholds <percent_increase>, <expand_min>]
  [radius <gather_radius>,<multiplier>,
          <gather_radius_media>,<multiplier>]
}
