Looks like they might be scrapping the lighting engine rewrite :-/
They've been scrapping the lighting engine rewrite for three (?) versions now.
New snapshot today includes a smooth lighting setting for minimal. I know smooth lighting was causing performance problems with one of the recent snapshots. Perhaps they will keep the rewrite?
