I just remembered this patch where Cory had rewritten the GrabWorld
style for the space navigator:

http://review.source.kitware.com/#/c/8374/

Nenad: If you get a chance to try it, please let us know (better yet,
make an account on the review board and leave feedback there, if you
have time. Otherwise an email to the list will do).

Cory: I +1'd these patch, but they seem to have been forgotten. Are
you still interested in contributing them? Can you rebase them against
current master and see if they still work?
