WARNING: This has now been fully implemented in AequilibraE, and is also available through its QGIS plugin. Since I first starting using TransCad (TCW 4.0 back in 2003) I always loved Desire Lines. It is easy and quick to obtain (as shown HERE) and it is one of the most important tools I use to understand OD matrices while getting acquainted with new data and/or new regions. Although excellent for many analysis, desire lines yield very poor maps when the number of filled cells in a matrix is too large, which is the case for our current transportation models with their many thousands of Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZs), so I saw myself using desire lines much less in the last couple of years.
What an incredible moment in AequilibraE's evolution. Version 1.0 is out with a ridiculously fast optimal-strategies transit assignment algorithm.

@Transportist I could not disagree more. This: "... grievances about past crimes, over which those being taught the lesson are powerless... " is basically asking to not teach history. I can agree that there is a question of age appropriateness, but it is a fact that the African slave trade is directly responsible for the AVERAGE lower social status that black Americans experience when compared to white Americans. Should we not teach about the slave trade or about cause and consequence to preserve white kids' feelings?
Further, asserting that this is designed to achieve a certain objective (i.e. Making the boys feel guilty) gives you the burden of proof. Since you acknowledge that such assertion would be repudiated tells me you can't prove your assertion, making it almost a requirement to dismiss it.
