No they simply provide the weight based on the distance. And they are 
one-dimensional.

For subsampling without scaling I would just calculate the area-based wieghts 
directly But remember to do the actual blending via colorspaces, so 
Boudewijn's reply is spot on.

However I too (like Bart) have reservations about bloating tiles with new 
iterators at all.
