> with max_trace_level set to something other than the default, it seems to
> remember that max_trace_level setting for the next render. To test this,
> do the following:
> 1) create a scene that shows artifacts from a small max_trace_level.
> Render it.
> 2) add a line to the scene setting max_trace_level high enough to remove
> the artifacts. Render it again.
> 3) remove the line setting max_trace_level and rerender.
> Notice that the result of (3) does not match the result of (1). While
> this is basically only an annoyance, it may also apply to other global
> settings and should probably be fixed to avoid confusion.
