For braves who knows how to experiment with beta versions, there are sample
scenes for postprocessing. Please imagine syntax from there or wait for
completion of manual.

Making this more precise: there is nothing wrong in using
pigment{camera_view{...}} as described in manual and is used in delivered
samples. The known problem appears in the shadow thrown by object textured
with camera_view pattern and viewed inside camera_view itself. Since in
majority of the applications this shadow use small area of the image itself,
and is rather dark, the bug it hardly noticable (and therefore appeared to us
in final stage of preparing MP11), so I would like to encourage to experiment
with this feature as well so other possible problems could be focused.
