Comment(by wcauchois):

 Here's an implementation of region_function that simply removes all faces
 which do not satisfy the predicate. It looks pretty bad unless you use a
 high plot resolution, but it works!

 Yesterday William brought to light some issues that made me realize the
 task of creating a better looking region_function is frought with some
 subtlety. Since region_function can be any Python callable, we cannot make
 any assumptions -- it could, for example, return a random boolean.
 However, I would like to implement some kind of heuristic that at least
 smooths the edges around the excluded region. In any case, we are not
 really responsible for the accuracy of the region beyond the plotting
 resolution.

 Cheers,
 Bill
