Mark Wieder recently added points to the standard graphic objects. But 
until that gets into the engine, I can't think of an easy way to create 
them.

I suppose you could draw out an oval with a 3 or 4 pixel line width, and 
then write a little script to record the mouseloc when you hit the 
return key, or something similar. That would allow you to carefully 
position the mouse before recording each loc. Then with some editing you 
could use that list as the point list.

It's not exactly how I'd want to spend my time though.
