This patch should add support for the ordered categorical models available in
mgcvfor a while now via theocatfamily. Mathematical details are in https://www.maths.ed.ac.uk/~swood34/gsm.pdf, but are not that different from the other models supported bysure.I knocked this together fairly quickly and I think it works (comparison between the equivalent
polrmodel for yourdf1seems about right, as do plots for some data I'm working on) but I may have missed some critical internal thing, not being fully immersed in the package details.Hope this is useful and thanks for the package, it's very handy.
