does v.to.rast work with labelled *lines*? If not, then I suppose
that it should. If it does, then what about using v.digit to
"Bulk" label all lines as a particular category and then do
the conversion? This would necessitate a cycle through v.out.ascii/v.in.ascii
because v.mkgrid makes the grid lines area edges instead of lines.
