The whole point of the many
different ceiling textures you see over drywall is to hide the little
imperfections that gravity magnifies on a ceiling.

Gravity? I think light shadows are the effect most people wish to hide. For simple-to-make texture, sprinkle a very small amount of very fine sand onto your texturing mud. As you apply the mud you will get an effect known as skip troweling. Quite nice looking.
