Comment(by strk):

 Should the function be called ST_Visvalingam, for clearness ?
 Also, couldn't 0 be a valid threshold value for a simplification ? To only
 remove vertices on the segment defined by their adjacent ones.

 About first/last point, we have a similar issue with ST_Simplify, and the
 latest idea was to use a kind of "policy" argument. I'm on a slow
 connection now but if you search ST_Simplify in trac you should find the
 previous discussion.
