43 - maybe we should never convert implicitly into visual/width, etc. lengths
45 - might be moved into the graph

74 - "undefined" corners of bounding boxes are no longer supported which makes
75 the bounding box operations much more efficient.
77 - reorganisation of the graph structure finished (there might be some
78 small pending issues, but the basic restructuring is done with this release):

111 normsubpaths which themselves consist of normlines and normcurves This is
112 much more convenient for any routines working with normpaths.
