Simone, Martin,

I'm actually butting up against this very issue right now.

I've got a float-denominated elevation-model raster with values that are
"geophysics" values, not image values.  From what I can tell, in order
to handle float-backed rasters, java wants the floats to be normalized
(mapped into the interval [0.0,1.0]) in some manner.

So I've got raw data with no colormodel.  I can jam all the float
samples into a DataBufferFloat, but the resulting BufferedImage is
basically un-drawable in an ARGB way in its raw form.

I'd LOVE to hear what you guys come up with.  If I can punt this
"unrenderable" float-backed coverage over to RasterSymbolizerSupport and
have it "normalize" (what I think you called option 2, simone) and then
map to AGray and paint the coverage, I'd be really happy.

--saul
