I understand what you're saying--but after thinking about it, I don't think
it will have any different result.  The windows are already using ambient.
Now, if I make the windows transparent, but put a layer behind it that is
fully ambient, no one could tell that it was any different than the way it
is now.  Am I thinking about this correctly?
