Dan, The idea of filter layers is not all that farfetched. The late-but-little-lamented Live Picture did its sharpening that way, one of the better features of the program. It would be a great solution to the problem of the discrepancy between the appearance of sharpening onscreen and the way it actually appears in the print. Maybe if we ask Russell Williams really nicely......
