Yes, sorry ... after some sleep & coffee, I now see the method I described
earlier does work the way it's suppose to. The problem is actually a
tolerance one which is easily fixed by changing the expression to *if($CUSTOM
> 89, 1, 0)*. We are trying to delete points that lie behind the camera
plane.

Sorry for the confusion.
