Here is what I propose.  We add a new variable, like
USE_NODES_DIRECTIONS.  It can be set to 1, 0, or undef, the default.
If undef it follows USE_NODES. 

If  USE_NODES_DIRECTIONS is true, use the same code as today, if it is 
false, use the section directions instead of the nodes directions in
_default_node_direction (this function would be renamed too).

Does it looks good?
