Isn't that what the max_sample keyword is for? It seems like its 
implementation is incomplete in the current version. In the documentation, 
it says, "Specifying a non-positive value for max_sample will allow any 
brightness of samples (which is the default)." Guess, 'any brightness' 
really means, 'no brighter than 100%'. ;-)

PS. Does prodding with the code to get a no_radiosity hack to work count as 
understanding it? I'm guessing it doesn't...
