Hmm...I dug into this a bit more, and it turns out the Arduino Marlin
firmware doesn't really support true jerk limiting.  What they call jerk
is actually the maximum instantaneous allowable change in combined XY
velocity (ie: going around corners).  I'm pretty sure the "jerk" setting
in Marlin can be approximated (likely with better overall results) using
G64 with a tolerance.

Expand the comments in the last link, where it is mentioned: "Evdz and
me had discussions, because we both know jerk is a terrible name for
this, because jerk is the change rate of acceleration. It should be
renamed to turn-velocity or similar. But the name is to well known to
change."

Off to experiment...
