Eh, but then we'll have 2 SPSA-optimizers....
Wouldn't it be the best to have one that combines the good of all 3 versions?

plan:
- we include the scales thing and the test and some elements from Mathieu's 
implementation
- we'll mail it to the list.
- you check it (if we combined all features correctly) and correct it
- Daniel commits it to the itk.
