Diamonds and other stones

I'm pretty much a rendering noob and although the gallery images I've seen are great, diamonds and other high refractive stones look totally dead and like glass. I'd be using OR for jewelry and it's a no go as it sits now because of this. Is this something that is planned or will be taken care by the official release?

Thanks

it requires dispersion, which i have not yet added.
it's pretty easy to add though, it won't be long before we support it.

however, it does'nt render efficiently without MLT, which i will implement first in the next beta 2.3.
