Yeah, I tried setting it to 10, the main effect was to reduce the saturation of
the glow (sun); but I should probably experiment with it some more.

I've tried values from around 0.5 to 1.7, it definitely alters the look but I am
still struggling to steer the behaviour towards the desired result (the same
difficulty applies to regular scattering media, though).

Oh well, at the very least it's a good learning exercise; and I can always
revert to the old method if necessary.
