Yes it's a normal spiral; the ratio is constant.  Doing an
approximation to a fibonacci spiral should be a minor tweak, the ratio
just changes: eg in the example on that page the ratios are [8%5, 5%3,
3%2 ...].  The final result will only be an approximation since the
aspect ratio of the screen will vary, so we'll probably get rectangles
rather than squares.

I'll code this up later in the week.
