Hi Martin,
I hope you will find some time to do the improvements. :)
My wishlist would be:
- set the tolerance fixed or in relation to the scale so it can update while zooming
- ability to calculate sum(), min(), max(), avg() of numerical values of group members, at least the count of points in each group
- using the same renderer (single symbol, categorized, graduated, rule based) for the cluster point

Those members variables are just temporary and not meant to be used
publicly. I don't think there is a way to retrieve these groupings.

If the time will allow, I would like to do few improvements to the
point displacement renderer. It would probably make sense to actually
take the clustering out of the renderer and have a class just for the
clustering algorithm that will return the groups.
