We did (long long ago in a galaxy far away) discuss a more general
way of representing light sensors of all types...

The thought was to have additional infomask elements describing
the frequency range being detected.  It's irritating complex in
many cases, but some rough limits (like 3db points or similar) 
might be normally fine...

We could still keep the types as a generic indicator, but include
more specifics.

E.g.

in_intensity0_uva_raw
in_intensity0_uva_min_wavelength
in_intensity0_uva_max_wavelength
with units in m (just to stretch our units system ;)

So what other light sensors do people have access to?
(I have x-ray ones :) though they are all analog.
With and without various scintilators to make it
more complex.
