Duh, forgot the method to compute a geodetic between two points was
already there.
Yeah, the usage of a Shape sounds certainly odd, unfortunately my predecessor
in maintaining that module was very adamant about using only java classes
and using the closest java class to the need, even if sometime that
make it the interfaces harder to use.

We _could_ add a clone of that method returning a double[] or a list of point2d
indeed.
