I love the stuff your doing with your engine and the game you are building (of course). I do not say you should/need implement Real-time Radiosity ... but maybe it can inspire you when you write awesome render code

Best regards

Radiosity is nice in an environment where you will be likely to have light come from indirect sources.
ie. In a building not out in space.

Now I totally agree that this is a cool method. And looks like it can be used to simplify lighting solutions for level designers.
Hopefully after Limit Theory Josh looks into upgrading the engine to support indoor environments better through radiosity and faked-caustics.

Although caustics would be amazing for Ice fields. Having light refract and reflect plausibly would look amazing.

Imagine being able to fly through a large iceteroid....
