 Well that's pretty cool!  The diagrams from QGIS are very nice.  They
don't seem to mention performance - I assume it's not very fast using their
approach.

I'm continuing to think about the best way to optimize intersecting a line
with an arbitrary polygon (fully general, so can contain holes).  Am
zeroing in on a solution, but don't have it running yet.  It will be
interesting to see how much faster it is.
