Selecting multiple nodes

When I trace an image, I often end up with a ton of nodes. Is there a way to select multiple nodes so that I can delete them all at once? For instance, when I trace an image that contains a straight line but the image is rough, it adds nodes where the line isn’t smooth, and I’d like to delete the intermediate nodes without deleting the lines. Right now I’m deleting each node by hitting the D key.

I figure it’s probably more complicated than it seems, because you’d have to figure out a way to have it know to delete just the nodes and keep the lines. But I thought I’d ask just in case.

Thanks.

There isn’t a way to do this yet, no.

Okay, much appreciated.
