Yep, some people know of it anyway, it's just not written up in the
documentation I guess.
I put it to use for making light beams with varied concentric intensity.
Another way of doing so would have been to use caustics made from a spotlight
shining through a clear refractive lens with a onion normal, for example.
Can also darken places of a room for effect. So there are "practical" uses.
