    Should we be toying with joints that you couldn't make work?

      Chris, as you may know, there are a few "broken" joint files lying around in the joints folder for sketchyphysics. Some of us modelers have started to use these, flaws and all, in their models. Most famously the magnet joint but also a weird "oscillator" joint. While they seem like a whole new set of oportunities to us, I am a bit worried that using them may wind up damaging something serious.

      As you are the designer of the program, what do you think? And if you do think it isn't such a bad idea, could you leave your failed joint ideas in the sketchyphysics joints folder and just mark them as "glitchy?"
