Huh. To be honest, I was able to follow your explanation only up to some 
extent, but not in its full length... Indeed this sounds like a lot of hand 
work. I think this already begs for being avoided...

Yes, at least I've already understood the method description in the original 
blog posts, so I think this should work with much less hand-work. But I'm 
curious to hear your next results here.
