Is there any way to customize the method of zone plotting (that is described
in section 4.6 of the Epoch documentation)?

This documentation states:
	
	The zone plotter assumes that the zone list is sorted by starting 
	position.  If zones overlap, the zones with the largest starting 
	position take precedence.  This allows the zones to nest, so that
	if one zone is entirely inside another, both zones are visible. ...

I have the difficulty that I have two zones that have the same starting
position, so the smaller of the two zones is not displayed.  This seems to 
work when the second zone is completely contained, but the list really 
should be reordered by the smaller zones first.
