Sorry to be awkward, but it isn't the same. The problem with the current implementation is that since the size of each gap, before quantization, is proportional to the time between each pair of notes' NoteOn events, then quantization will only give us equal gaps where the notes are approximately evenly spaced, e.g. all the notes are minims (half-notes).
In a case like the one I mentioned - a 4-beat note followed by 2 or more ½-beat notes, then without quantization we get a first gap which is exactly 8 times the size of the others. So far as I can see, quantization will not alter that significantly, and this is certainly what I find by actually using the tool.
If the percentage applied to the length of a beat, rather than to the length of each individual note, then we would get consistent gaps, which is what we want. Quantization would not then be necessary or useful, so far as I can see.
