Good point! I only thought about the blue color cast and not about all other
object colors. My fault for narrowing the question down too much.

Your no_radiosity suggestion makes me think it would be even better if there was
a way to apply a percentage instead of simply on/off. Although... with an object
for background, shouldn't (finish) diffuse and emission do something like that
anyway? Or does zeroing those matter to other scene objects?


I must give this a try just to see for myself what happens.
