Yes... I've added a polyline to this one yesterday; today I tried to make
that better, but didn't succeed much. See my earlier mail of today.

That's my posish, too -- I understand enough to begin hacking, but not
enough to actually _know_ what I'm doing...

Not exactly. It's KisDoc that knows about saving & loading; and the layers
are another thing again. And there are bugs, i think, in the layer
compositing, too.

Have fun -- if you want my current patch -- still no cvs access -- mail
me, and I'll send you a diff.
