do we have an eta for deformation blur with the hair procedural?

There is nothing I can *commit* to at this point, but I would encourage you to maintain hope/optimism

For the immediate time being, if you want to see unclamped values, you will need to look at a "render" in a 2D viewport (be it rendering to mplay, taking a Render Gallery snapshot, using a Live Render, etc).

If you can send us a hip file (ideally via a bug), we can have a look. There are a number of places where things could be going wrong that results in what you're seeing.
