34 - TODO: general documentation about changeable attributes?
36 - maybe we should never convert implicitly into visual/width, etc. lengths

39 - perform calc by means of Python itself (see eval code in graph.data, but
40 we should use compiled code instead of eval)
42 - think hard about different paths in decoratedpath class

67 - section titles: "Axes" -> "Axes - module axis" or similar
70 - describe creation and modification (inplace and ``modify by new'') of
75 - names of local and member variables now follow the naming convention of

156 - set, draw, stroke and fill no longer return self, i.e., the canvas, but None
158 - added inplace add (__iadd__), enlarge and transform methods
