While we're on the subject: Does anyone know how to calculate delta-v for a transfer orbit between two bodies given a fixed maximum acceleration?

A lot of the (introductory) stuff I've seen only gives info for Hohman orbits, since they're the most efficient (ignoring slingshots and other gravitational transfer shenanigans), but is there an easy way to crunch less-efficient/faster routes?
