A very useful feature that goes hand in hand with full area lights is color 
mapping aka tone mapping aka exposure control. There's already some code for 
it in Megapov. Basically one needs 3 modes : linear, exponential and HSV 
(plus gamma correction and some others).

This is for Vray but it's standard in other renderers. The examples above 
are not very impressive, but HSV color mapping, particularly, is a must have 
for interior scenes.
