But I think, there are yet some problems with flipovers, especially with S-shaped paths and narrow curves. Note that in the attached examples, I didn't change pathside intentionally. (The mousepointer was never on the other pathside than the initial one.)

Well, consider that this feature is mostly intended for hatching, and hatching is rarely done with S-shaped paths :) I wanted to find a balance between the force of attraction and manual freedom. This balance can still be tweaked in one or another direction if needed, and I will take into account any feedback. In my testing, however, I was able to track a closed O-shaped path without any flipovers if I draw carefully and not too quickly.
