Of course they are useful, but do we really need to see them when there

are hundreds of samples plotted 1 pixel apart? (As I've said: keep them

when when the user "zooms in" on an appropriate small number of

samples). But this is an aesthetics-oriented idea, functionality won't

be impaired either way so feel free to ignore it.
