Here's a quick example of what the combination of inverted polygon and

Since shapeburst fill can use map-based units, the "outer glows"-like
effect of polygons can be spatially relevant, i.e. in the above map, the
glow could represent a specific distance, 2km, within which a growing
impact on local population is to be expected.
