It would be interesting to extend the grass vector model to be able to
construct curves for using them to create real circular buffers instead of
approximating them using several vertices.
I just was wondering - isn't it more effectice saving a buffer using one
vertice and a "curved line" than using several points and approximate the
circle.
An appproximated buffer could still be in the data - only newly calculated
buffers are more correct then.
