[Bf-committers] compositor defocus node

[Jeroen Bakker]

Hi Lars,

I have read the document, but it is really into using defocus in games. 
Perhaps a feature request for BGE  :).  They do some tricks that will 
become visible when using this during compositing. Some parts I have 
already thought about (like slicing) but I don't think we can implement 
a speedy single node whit good quality that will be capable of handling 
all types of usages.

Jeroen.
