It is noted that a surface layer of matter in contact with a sufficiently
super-Eddington, radially combed photon flux typically attains a relativistic
coasting state whereby the radiation does not accelerate the matter. Radiation
that scatters off this layer is most likely to be observed along the velocity
vector of the matter, where it would be most strongly polarized.
