This is the text "POV-Ray" painted onto a box(using my object pattern 
patch :-) ) with a half-tube in front of it. The "pipe" is a simple 
texture with a fairly large amount of blur, and almost contacts the box 
in the center of the image. You can see how things close to the blurred 
texture show through more clearly than farther things.
Crude ASCII art, top view:

Looks cool Chris. :{)

Do you think that it'll eventually get to the point where you can create
something like the doorknobs I've attached?

Looks to me like it already could.
Fine example(s).

It is already at that point...here is an example I just did. It uses 
both blurred reflection and blurred transparence for the glass 
part.(since frosted glass reflects as well as just letting light through)
It still needs a little work(I need to use more samples to get rid of 
some of the noise), but it's a start.

Oooh! Now that's something I've never seen POV do... Please let us know
about render times and memory use and stuff like that...

| the transparence_blur keyword(which I will probably change to
| blur_amount) which specifies the blurriness of the texture, and
| blur_samples

blur_amount seems a nondescript term, esp. since reflection blurring exists; how
about trans_blur?  Or better yet diffuse_refraction?
Btw, I just knew it could be done (the doorknob example).
