Freehand paths

The enhancements made to the Free Select tool in version 2.6 are quite
phenomenal. The implementation is powerful yet intuitive and I
congratulate those involved in its development (from the Changelog I
am led to believe that Martin Nordholts handled the brunt of the
coding effort).
here is 'the making of', how Martin and I did it:
I was wondering if it would be feasible to use that same tool
interface in order to implement similar hybrid polygonal/freehand
segments as a new Paths type.
if I have to summarise my goals for the path tool, it is
make it as uncomplicated and powerful as the new free/poly tool.
Kamila and I, Pippin, Simon, and others are exploring this from
our individual viewpoints.
