Yes, I do that. What I'm actually after is the effect of a true
"softlight" for the wraparound of an object with diffuse light.

That too. I know it's sometimes silly to try to get a 3D program
to emulate real-world physics in light transmission, but as a
"real-world" DP, I just love my softlights! The only other thing
I found myself agreeing with/hoping for was the local coordinates
thing. BTW, I thank both of you for your input, your
contributions here have universally been well-thought-out and
reasonable in tone. I like a high s/n ratio here myself.
