Thanks Taco!
I have been playing about with an example from this site
https://tex.loria.fr/prod-graph/zoonekynd/metapost/metapost.html
which was originally for a square and I obviously didn't get my angles
right. Thanks for spotting it. I'm beginning to appreciate where the Fun

What's missing is better integration though (to end up with almost as
good integration as metapost/metafun offers), and 3D with javascript
mousing support never worked either.

Special cases are for instance metapost things, so we don't translate an

there is no such 'moinsfun' defined because this is a system key. A

Hans’ example also works with “intersectionpoint”: the differences between
intersectionpoint
and intersection_point are minimal except if there is no intersection at all.

thousands of pages. This greatly reminds me on the awesome speedup
that Hans achieved when rewriting the mplib code & the initial
\sometxt changes inside metapost which also lead to 100-fold speedups
as one no longer needed to start TeX a zillion times.)

Thanks a lot for the pointer. I didn't have that much time to read
through all the emails recently, I only noticed that he was super
actively working on some metapost stuff, I wasn't paying attention to
this.
