Has any work been done on displaying 256 grey shades on a monitor with
greater than two grey shades (i.e. black and white + some number of greys)?
It seems that an extension to dither would be a good place to start.  So
far as I know, rounding is the norm in hardware (yuck!  a good dither looks
better than some 16 grey renderings I've seen!).
