Yes, and directional ones too (that propagate in a cone in a given
facing). This would be a nice easy way to make the colours of items
vary then. (instead of making a blue version of a wall, have a white
one, add a directional negative glow radius 'white' light, and a
positive glow radius directional 'blue' light, and have the client's
graphics card deal with the colouring. This would allow much more
variation in colours of objects, without adding arches. (and colour
spray done by abusing that could look pretty).
