it would be fun to be able to work with plots in some way or other.
something like this would be useful (beware of pseudo code and random
syntax):

similarly, the plot window should allow some interaction on graphs, like
change colors, style or delete them. (read: it should be possible to
add these features some day).

one set of waves for each simulation type does not really improve the
situation. why not just copy a wave to the gtk process as-needed and
attach a meaningful identifier? this is still a hundred times better
than brute-force store everything, like other simulators do.

(i daresay copying around waves with identifiers might also be
interesting for other commands. but lets not open a new projects here.)
