I think that you are opening new frontiers in lomography. I wouldn't recommend it as an "every day" sort of effect, but it is very interesting.
I wonder if you could use one of those lens mount adapters that has a corrective element to allow infinity focus so that you could at least focus out a few feet and use it as a soft focus portrait lens.
Or, if you were really silly, you could try your focus stacking with this lens and see what sort of crazy images you get. :-)
