Using the same color data type throughout, for instance. As it is now, 
some parts of the code use old C-style structures, while others already 
use C++-style objects. Obviously, a consistent use of C++-style objects 
would be easier to base a spectral rendering patch on.

Another thing is the internal handling of F and T components, which I 
intend to replace with a full RGB transparency model. Again, this will 
simplify implementing a sane spectral rendering patch.
