I've managed to get some more work done on the flexible pieces, anyone interested can try http://gerf.org/~leo/leocad-hose.zip
One thing I noticed about lsynth is that it allows (requires) the user to specify the direction of the control points, how important is this? I can see it being useful for the end points but just taking the curve tangent for the center points seems easier to me. You could even use a 2nd control point near the edges to remove the need of specifying any orientations at all. I still need to add a way of adding/deleting control points but I think most of the functionality is there.
