I have to admit botch, that compliment is going to keep me going for a whole week! I'm glad you're enjoying the product! =)

One of the awesome features we have lined up for version 2.0 is the ability to "pick..." an HDRI map to use. There are a few hitches though, such as distortion. I believe one of the late sections of the help file talks about HDRI distortion types. One of the things we have on the big whiteboard here is how we plan to deal with distortion types. From the current vantage point, it looks like we'll be able to handle the most common types (spherical mapping, Long-Lat, and lightprobe formats).

Hope that answers your question; and thanks for letting us know that's important to you!!
