Well, when you go from tip to paper, and then make a quick stroke, there's 
acceleration involved. The speed isn't constant, and I think you can see the 
result on the paper.

Of course. Well, it would be hard to try to paint with simulated paint on a 
pixel layer (what I think of myself as a pure colour layer), but on the other 
hand, changing the colour on a wet paint layer with a traditional computer 
brush is already possible. And Adrian fixed the pen tool, so we've got the 
hard pencil already :-).
