I wrote a patch for this months ago, but it needs a decent user
interface before going into the release. I don't program Java, so
haven't got a clue about how to do the interface stuff (manipulating
objects and doing maths is the easy bit ;-) ).

The interface shouldn't be hard - it just needs to select the distance
the nodes should be apart, and suggest reasonable defaults.
