I'm a little confused here too.  I watched the demo (very cool, BTW!) and
you are starting with a default curve, if I'm not mistaken.  Couldn't the
results of dragging the various control points be expressed as
displacements to the curve you started with, rather than as absolute
values?  Then adjustments would be made automatically with a change in
layout.
