My knee-jerk reaction is that I don't buy it. Electromagnetism can be described by a quantum field, but there exist other forces that can also be described by different quantum fields. So what makes the undulation of the electromagnetic field--light, in a word--so "privileged" with respect to the Lorentz symmetry, but not the undulations of those other fields, which otherwise seem to be on an equal philosophical footing? It doesn't sound right.

What exactly is supposed to be violating relativity? It certainly isn't the speed of light, b/c it seems hard to think that that could be the source of light itself? Is it areas of space-time which don't have the curvature that one would expect under special relativity?
