Welcome in my brain, Barney: I was writing about gravity and inertia in this
very hour. The approach you describe may be usable, but as for myself, I'm
talking in the LMPL proposal about a tensile strength instead. I see some
difference. Tensile strength may allow or disallow parts to disconnect (in a
crash, for example), but friction can take influence on the working of a
connection. The higher the friction, the greater the force needed to make it
moving. Therefore, I didn't make a link between friction and gravity or inertia.
However, the whole question belongs to the LMPL side of the project, not to
LCD. In a mere LCD system with no LMPL implementation, there is nothing to
do with friction, since we can't move connections. Moving them belongs to
the LMPL side.
