Why not just make your algorithms handle multi geometries? They are
very common, e.g. all polygon/line shapefiles in 3.0 are
multipolygon/multiline types. If you don't handle multi geometries
correctly, your algorithm won't work with these.

If your algorithm needs this to operate correctly, then it should be
done automatically within your algorithm itself.
