The arrowheads at the end of a line (or multi-line or ...) could be better, in that they don't significantly change appearance when the brush width goes from zero to four, and the trailing tips do not look optimally positioned when the line is at other than 90 degree angles.

This patch:

makes the arrowheads look a lot better when using a dashed-line brush, but more can be done. It is interesting to compare what gets drawn in the canvas with the appearance of the arrow in the ArrowVarView at the upper-left of the canvas.

    Also look at arrowheads with really thick lines (>20).
