[PD] freehand drawing in Gem

It should be possible with the vertex_array stuff.  I just saw a demo of
Luxology's forthcoming 'modo' and it converted free hand drawing into tubes.
While GEM might not do anything that fancy very soon, a similar idea could be
made into an object.  Each new point input into the object would be a new vertex
and jumping between points would result in more minear structures.  It would be
easy to use this with something like Yves' grid object.  I'm not sure about
getting position info from the gemwin and having it consistant across platforms
without using GLUT for everything.
