That's

True.  Post processed focal blur currently removes some anti-aliasing.  I'm
trying to figure out a way to make it work (without slowing down the render)
but I haven't come up with a good solution.  The problem is that the depth
information for a ray is not anti-aliased, and I don't think that it can be.
I might try, but I just haven't had time recently.
