2. Transformer "Contour" property "Detect Orient." I don't see what it's

Paths may be layed out clockwise, or counter clockwise, and then there may
be selfintersecting paths which are kind of both. This setting appearantly
turns on some magic in the AGG backend for this feature that's supposed to
make it behave more consistent. I.e. always extend the contour outward,
regardless of path orientation... but I don't know if it works perfectly.
At least it doesn't work _always_ properly. Under some circumstances, the setting reverses
the contour, making the shape x pixels smaller. Sometimes it doesn't do anything or only
after adjusting the width parameter.
Anyway, thanks for your explanations. I have documented these features as best as I
understand them. Corrections are very welcome.

Humdinger
