In the CSR Joe asked if glide(int, int) needed to throw IAE and it made me look
here and I don't actually see where this code would throw that.
And the old extended robot never had such a feature, did it ?
Also if you think of glide as a sequence of steps, then even with the default
of "2" if the distance to move is say "5" after 2 steps you are one pixel away
and then I presume we just step one pixel for the final step.
So how is that different than STARTING one pixel away ?
Perhaps we can just dispense with the IAE and if dist < steplength then there's
just one step.

I hadn't noticed that this over-ride is both removed here and not added to
Robot.
If this were available, then perhaps those setters and getters for the current
values aren't needed !
What was the reason for not including it ? No one ever used it or something
else ?
