An examination shows that Karbon has no pen tool, which really should be added.
It also has no obvious way to delete individual points from a shape (if it did have, you
could have scribbled a pencil line then deleted the intermediate points to straighten it).
These are pretty serious deficiencies for what's supposed to be a usable vector
editing application.
