Not where I really want to be
In every kitchen, dining room, breakfast room, living room, parlor, library, den, sun room, recreation room and bedroom, one receptacle outlet shall be provided for every 20 linear feet or major fraction thereof of the total (gross) distance around the room as measured horizontally along the wall at the floor line.
 
oh... let me dust off my books.. dang! don't have that particular publication

Having said that.. you bring up a good point... in renovations that are NOT complete gut jobs.. we don't talk about receptacle spacing on existing walls that are not disturbed during the renovation.
