Per your suggestion, I created a definition to do the same for surfaces. I posted it in the same place, if you have any interest in looking: http://heumanndesigntech.wordpress.com/2009/04/10/mesh-deformation-tools/
Somehow in the months I've been using grasshopper I've never once used the Surface From Points component, so I had kind of forgotten it existed - thanks for the suggestion!!
