So how does AutoGrid to it? I thought that AutoGrid was an extension
of Regrid that figured out the grid for you. Is that what you're
asking is can this algorithm be used to teach AutoGrid which is the
best grid to use?

Great. I think thats the best solution. I was wondering (as long as we
are on the subject) whether it could do something moderately intelligent if
the grid is not given. If the data were defined on a axis-aligned grid,
then it seems like one could, for each axis, extract the corresponding
coordinate from each of the scattered points, sort them, remove the
duplicates and derive the origin and step size for the axis from the
result. I'm not sure how you'd avoid doing something really bad, however,
if the data was not actually organized on an axis-aligned Cartesian grid.
Might end up inferring some enormous grid thats totally bogus.
