Busy roads pull nearby minor roads

First let me say that Slide is a wonderful tool that revolutionized open MTB mapping for me and others.
When a new less-used way is tracked with slide near a busy road, the tracking often jumps to the dominant road.
Correspondingly, when a minor road joins a busy road in an acute angle, the tracking joins them earlier along the busy road than it should.

A possible solution would be to take into account existing mapped roads to neutralize the puling of their associated GPS points.

Yeah, this is currently a problem. I just end up editing manually in those areas. Currently slide just used the density of GPS points as input. Obviously adding more information into the mix would make it better, but still working out how exactly to do that.
