I like the idea.  My usual method is trial and error.  How does it choose?  Does
it trace?  What happens if the object has holes?  What if there is no central
subject?

I really like the physical approach here.  Just like lightsys, I usually try to
choose arbitrary parameters that give the same look, but my choices always fall
far short of physically-based choices.

No complaints here.
