The other problem is actually a mathematical issue. It is well known the matrix math used produces a back projection. This artifact has historically been avoided by using a special black and white texture to cut away unnecessary projecting contributions. Using pixel shaders a different approach can be used: and a coordinate check is sufficient to discriminate between foward (correct) contributions and backward (wrong, to be avoided) ones.
