Quote - Regarding HDRI:

  1. Make the HDRI lighting work in indoor scenes that have no windows (Like Poser and, I believe, Lightwave).

  2. HDRI shouldn't be implemented as a background image but as a light type whose properties are supplied by an hdri image. In the case of a spherical hdri map, each point of the sphere is a distant light **composed of only one ray **that is perpendicular to the sphere at that point and has all the behaviors of a distant light except it doesn't cast shadows.

 

This would be my number one request.  I would lilke to use HDRI inside without removing the roof and/or walls.
