Hi,

My modifications are on
    https://github.com/immi-h/xournal.git
in the branch line-widths.

I've been thinking a bit more about it: As I had written before, it 
somewhat changes the file format (to be able to store the line width at 
the very beginning). However, I think that after all, it's quite bad if 
old versions of xournal are not able to read new files. (I don't know 
whether that's also your opinion.) I thought about changing the new file 
format in such a way that old xournal versions would simply ignore the 
additional information (by simply putting the additional information 
into another attribute), but the latest version of xournal doesn't 
accept files with additional attributes anymore, so that doesn't work.

For this reason, I'm now thinking about splitting my modifications in 
two parts:
- everything that doesn't need a changed file format (in particular the 
optimizations)
- change the file format only when the file format is changed anyway 
also for other reasons (maybe when there's a major new version of 
xournal or something like that)

Suggestions? Comments?

Best,
     Immi
