Good work.
Tobias,
Thank you for that suggestion. I am now using the geographiclib routines in
Shape Tools' XY to Line routine that was released today. I am still
including Great Circle as an option and if you zoom in you can see the
differences.

All the best,

Wait, it's way better to use this one:
I can implement Vincenty as I have some of that code as well - at least for
WGS84. I am not an expert on projections so I am not sure how to change the
code to make it work for any ellipsoid.

Try to implement
Recently I implemented an 'XY to Line' function in the ShapeTools plugin.
This has been requested several times and I needed it so I implemented it.
See
http://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/shapetools/
XY to Line is similar to the ArcGIS tool with the same name.
