First off - fantastic work on the initial SSLT algorithm, it's an amazing
feature that already works very well!

And now to my request :-) Having the SSLT algorithm be able to take a density
parameter in the same way media does would be in my top two requests for future
work - faked media-based SSS can give some pretty stunning results in term of
the feeling for the material.

My examples is far from stunning, but hopefully shows that there's a huge amount
that could be achieved if density could make it into the SSLT system...

Cheers,
Edouard.
