The fixed or open playoff draw was one of the first playoff aspects put into the proposal I made. I did it mostly to allow recreating NBA-style playoffs or NHL-style playoffs, but it comes in handy in other areas, such as recreating the International League's playoff format.
Note that I don't know for sure Markus coded it in. I would hope so since it wouldn't seem to be a difficult item.
