I think I asked this before, but does GEF/Draw2D have support for
drawing Bezier (quadratic) curves, a la java.awt.geom.GeneralPath.curveTo()?
If not, is it planned?
If not, how would I go about creating a figure that represents a series
of points connected by bezier curves?

There is no support for this. It is pretty simple to ask awt.geom package
to generate a shape, and then iterate over that awt shape and create a
Draw2D PointList for a Polyline.
In fact, this is how we draw the focus outline on connections. Select an
object that has connections in the logic example and press Ctrl+'/'.

Curved lines are appoximated with polylines. AWT allows you to set a
"flatness" when appoximating a curve with a polyline. The closer to 0.0,
the more segments that will be used to represent hte curve.
