RE: [Theory] Drastic dark areas?

Unfortunately, with SpotLights and PointLights, if it's turned all the way to dark they are just invisible. They will not create shadows in a lit room. But, if used very very carefully with no BoxLight, I could make drastic shadows wherever there are gaps in the lights.

Like, I imagine in a room filled with lamps and pointlights to illuminate the bright spots, and the rest is filled in with an ambient BoxLight... If the BoxLight slowly fades then the bright spots will stay the same, but the dark spots will become darker.

FogAreas would be ideal to use, perhaps, if only they could more or be turned on/off. Alas, though, they are static.
