This looks really good. I can see this being something that would be really
useful integrated with a version control system (eg git) or project
management system (eg Redmine). The translucent lines threw me off for a
minute (it seemed a little distracting) but I can see that they would be
useful for showing all the true segments of a footprint. Maybe you could
make a toggle option for the transparency. The transparency and colours
would probably also be very useful for integration with version control
systems to implement a visual diff.

I look forward to seeing where you go with this. Will you be releasing the
project as open source?

Ben
