It seems that the bounding boxes that went into a *specific* curve segment
cannot be directly known, but we can easily get all the bounding boxes along
the intersection curves. I will implement this addition once I find it
necessary. At present I'd like to focus on extending the brep command and
plotting surfaces and intersection curves.

I will mail this list once I need them. Thank you.
Cheers!
