Does this really have to be modeled, per se?  Until we get support for
force-feedback rudder pedals and seat cushions, the only thing we can
reasonably do is play a sound.  That can be done already with some
fancy thresholding (gating with /gear[0]/wow and groundspeed) using
the existing sound mechanism.

I have limited experience here, but the nosewheel shimmy I noticed in
a friend's PA-180 was only a rumble.  It didn't seem to effect the
orientation or handling of the aircraft.
