Back in the start of 1.10 I noticed that when you set an object with Light attributes, it left sort of a 'halo/glare' of light around it, that was rather neat, albeit sometimes irritating at times. Evidently it wasn't something that everyone could see. I had played with the graphics options and never figured out what caused it (as even turning every graphic option off STILL showed it). It was like a GLOW effect, in a way, like a CG spotlight glare.

Now with 1.11, that's gone. Even with everything turned back on full, it doesn't happen any more. I've tried to get that effect back, to no avail.

Just a simple pair of Q's - Was this explained graphical 'effect' that happened back there intentional? And if so.... what was it called? And does it still work? Because it seems to have ceased to exist. ;)

There is a debug option that was probably reset with the update:
Debug -> Rendering -=. Light Glows
