Better control over the smooth function. Basically the example below requires two things: first it needs to support periodic geometries (chord is angle parametrized and periodic in the circular direction) and secondly it needs to only alter the x-component of controlpoints to avoid ever leaving the large chord along the x-axis (that is y^2+z^2 should not ever change which all-component smoothing would do).
