Its still on the list, but I haven't had the time to do anything on kdtree
for a while now, so i'm just focusing pushing through bug fixes to ensure
that the results are correct.

I would guess it'll be at least a month before I can do anything, unless I
manage to find a small random window of time where I can attack that issue.

Would it be too much to ask if you write the python file that generates all
the variants, and then we can do the dynamic version later?  I don't know
how much work that would involve, if its not too much then I would prefer if
you set yourself up with a low-maintenance solution first.

cheers,
Paul
