stencil integrals

Before, the p of "implicit" forced the skyline up, so the issue that  
David's talking about wasn't present (we're talking about 0.1 units  
maximum, but it's enough to be seen as a difference).  It doesn't bother  
me, but I'd be interested to see what a specialist says.

To implement the horizontal stretching of which you speak (which is a great  
idea), rods could be used.  It'd take a lot of work on the horizontal  
spacing code.
