It would be nice if you could upload or use a png that has an image as a dynamic light boundary box generator.  So instead of hand drawing tons of lines, you can make a png with black and transparent, import the image as a lighting layer object, and it adds bounding boxes based on the black of the image.

I would love to see this added. I also wonder if it'd be easier on performance. Either way, this, please. It'd make adding dynamic light boundaries so much easier.

Bumpage for traction, I hope.  It definitely would be a perk to reduce load on maps of all sizes.  I also don't think it would cause regressions with existing maps.  And that is the important part to me.

Actually, if you could just add a free image layer, like another token layer, we could manage the transparencies for the fog of war and you wouldn't need to program anything.
