This will open up so much user space power.

Yes, that's the idea. There's still a couple of questions that need
to be answered.

Right now, it returns bounding box information plus the points and
path / faces. But I'd prefer that it would default to just the
data with an optional transformation function. That's all new stuff,
so there could be some traps.

It's not the full object proposal, but it seems like a way to get
this feature into a usable shape while the more general stuff is
cooking a totally unclear timeline.

ciao,
Torsten.
