about a lens attachment years ago where a close up lens was ground
into part of the front, sort of like a blended lens bifocal. It
allowed an extreme close up in part of the frame with the background
at a different focal length. It seemed like a stupid idea and the
demonstration photo did not raise that low opinion of it.

You can get "filters" like that with half a CU lens in it. You can even hold
a regular CU lens half way accross the front of a lens (if you don't stop it
down too much) and fake it, if the middleground is nondescript so a slightly
blurry darker section is acceptable.
