In my case I'm using POV for the bloom effect. It's a post-process 
effect, but uses POV to do it. This satisfies the POV-purists somewhat. 
I released the code come time ago, under the name of "luminous color 
bleeding" or something to that effect. I've been using a more up-to-date 
version recently which preserves more of the color.

I should probably release the new code, since I've been "testing" it for 
months now. It seems to work pretty well, and I think it might be faster 
than the old version.
