GLASS-MATERIAL

Please provide a working glass-material (dielectric or not) for architectural visualization.
I know the sun-through-dielectrics-problem and that the current (V1.0) core cannot handle it.
Therefore I wish a material with similar characteristics (even faking) as a workaround until the issue is solved.
Regards,
Roman

Yes,
nobody needs caustic, dispersion or strange effects in a normal window.
Just transparency and refraction

I agree, there's no point in giving us a render engine that you can't render glass & sunlight together with, this is a must. Faking it is preferable to not having it at all.

Faking? What do you mean by that?
If it is transparent then it is dielectric, then we have problems.
If it is not transparent then it is not glass.
How can this be done?
I agree that not having glass is terrible problem. 99% of my work is exterior renders

Exactley what I said, if the dielectric material won't work then figure out a way to fake a glass material that does the same thing.
