I don't think many photorealistic scenes will be needing this. Eh, we'll see. I don't know that much about cartoon rondering, but this might have a useful application there.

I think, other artist would want that more than the the other feature^^ Ummmm... That's a little OT, but: You can make games with 3D-Filters (like anagraph...) Cant you make it avilable for Anims and Pics aswell? That would be nice; The next great Blenderfilm would be able to have ´"true" 3 dimensions^^ Thanks, that's another good feature!

Most of us use spots with buffers to eliminate the horrible hard edged look of raytraced shadows. The transparency is also utterly unrealistic, this simply doesn't happen in real life, and you can't define alpha transparency with textures, which is what a lot of people would have wanted more than any of the current features. Also invisible to rayracing? c'mon... So it's slightly faster than raytraced shadows, big deal. Im with Roofoo on this.

Would you be up for that? @GBOI
