        I didn't manage to scan through the whole volume of the AST
        documentation, but it seems that it addresses my concerns (at
        least partially.)  Thanks for the pointer!

        (Do I understand it correctly that there're “no features lost”
        Perl bindings available as well, BTW?)

        Huh?  Somehow, I've got the impression that it only gives a
        coordinate mappings (much like what, say, PROJ.4 does for
        coordinate systems in geography), but doesn't perform any
        operations on grids by itself.  (And that's where PDL may come
        into play.)  Was I wrong with that?

        Is there a public mailing list, BTW?
