New changes and additions:

1) falling drop sizes slightly increases with distance from camera. This 
makes it possible to use less drops: 300k instead of 800k previously.

2) added a small function that groups drops together, simulating wind 
influence on rain sheets. Originally from Kirk Andrews; I always use it 
for placing vegetation.

3) added an inside test for the ground (and/or other objects). You do 
not want rain drops /beneath/ the surface or inside objects. ;-)

4) added splash impacts with a modified texture from Jaime's original.
