i think people have just been putting them in unions in mpov0.6 for
convenience in translation with other objects.  i don't think anyone is
actually trying to make objects glow or anything like that.  i haven't
tried it myself, but i do frequent the moray newsgroups and have tried
the plugin.  something 'has' changed from 0.6 to 0.7 besides the size
keyword, and that's what keith is talking about.
