With 2k textures out in the wild, and BoM 2k support coming soon; I thought it might be nice to have the option to limit 2k textures independently of the global viewer setting for 1024 and 512.
This feature would allow users to limit the maximum texture size displayed on other avatars independently of their own avatar. It could be expanded to display friends in 2k as well, should the user enable it.
This would function similarly to Firestorms "Show Friends Only" feature. Instead of derendering everyone and dooming the user to bump into others aimlessly, it would simply reduce their impact on your network connection and viewer.
As we all know, everyone likes being the main character (myself included), we need more tools to control for everyone dressing to the nines.
