I certainly don't think the behavior is perfect now. I've been trying to let
the spacing be defined based on speed, but this turns out not to be an
easy fix. The problem is that the time the mouse movement was
recorded is not available, and checking for the current time right after
the mouse event is very inaccurate. The Gimp bug is there for exactly
the same reason:

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=143216

There's probably a way to retrieve that info in GHOST for each OS. I'll
see what I can do to fix this, because the same problem will be there
with pressure sensitivity.
