Excellent. I'd love to see that behavior as an option on the pencil tool's toolbar.
You say that, but to me, I'm really worried about the number of switches that inkscape is taking on. What icon could you use to explain a choice between "use old jaggedy line interpolation" or "use new smooth interpolation". IMHO, users just want the app to work right. The switches seem to be being used as an excuse by us to dodge hard design decisions.
I'd advise that we thoroughly test the new code, and see if we use any functionality by loosing the old interpolator, then if there's no significant loss, only gain, then replace the old with the new permanently!

I agree; as far as I can see the current jaggy behaviour should be regarded as a bug. If I want jaggy I can use other tools!
