  How so? AFAIK POV-Ray is usually faster than lightflow. I have yet to see
a proof of the contrary.

: speed==quality

  You still haven't explained this. What the h*** has speed to do with image
quality?
  The quality of the image has nothing to do with rendering speed. The image
will come identical independently of how long it takes to create it.
  What affects image quality are the algorithms used by the program and the
data provided by the user of the program. Speed has absolutely no effect on
the final image.

: investigated before adding new fancy and rarely used features to it...

  New features seldom slow down the renderer.
