Description
At least for some cartographic purposes it would be fantastic if Densify would let us not only add nodes to a geometry in a linear fashion (all nodes have the same distance to each other) but to specify something like common "density functions".
Eg I might want to get denser nodes on a line on its end compared to its start or have a gaussian normal distribution of points along the line. See the attached sketch for examples.
I could not figure out the right terminology for this. The closest analogy I have in mind is easing in animation (see https://github.com/d3/d3-ease) except for point density instead of movement.
