I can see using a sequence as one would draw with pencil more.  Then people would
draw variable serpentine paths as they filled an available area, and if
they got to a rectangular area, they'd start copying 2 arcs + 2 lines at a time to fill it.

That sequence would need startpoint-waypoint-endangle.

Is that too calculation intensive?
