For the record QGIS has comprehensive curved geometry support, including dozens of editing tools for creating and manipulating curved geometries. Again, we see a lot of demand for these from European users who need to work with official mandated data models. I would **love** to see curved geometry support land in GEOS in the future so that we can migrate a lot of downstream logic up to GEOS (where it arguably belongs).
