12449	Implement max consecutive distance	jseigneuret-pro@…	*Martin*	"Hello,
For this tool, there is simplify-way.max-error parameter and i have set it to 0.08 for cleaning natural=water data import. 

My question is : It's possible to set a new parameter to avoid delete node if the distance betweew forward and backward nodes after delete is longer than a specific distance (in meters)

the parameter can be: simplify-way.max-consecutive-distance

this exemple explain what i mean

I set a parameter to 300 meters
simplify-way.max-consecutive-distance=300

And a threshold to 0.08
simplify-way.max-error=0.08

schema:
       200       101
A--------------B-------C

My way contain 3 nodes A,B,C (and other but to explain it more easy with 3 nodes)
The result of Ramer–Douglas–Peucker algorithm want delete the B node but... I Don't want delete B because the result distance is longer than simplify-way.max-consecutive-distance paramerter
In my case 300m is the max accepted distance between two nodes.

Thank you"	enhancement	new	normal		Plugin simplifyArea			max_distance
