I'm using SphereSweep_Approx (SSWP_QUADRATIC_SPLINE ....)
to draw some SVG data, and I noticed that the control point is intersected by
the curve, whereas in SVG, they show the curve being inside of the convex hull
of control points.
Is this intentional behaviour of the macros?
Am I doing something wrong, using it improperly?

Would it be possible to have an additional, alternative quadratic spline added?

Thanks!   :)
