Comment (by ayyer):

 > If the input graph is not 3-edge-connected, then the dual will not be a
 simple plane graph, so no code will work for those graphs until we first
 add support for plane multigraphs and plane graphs with loops.

 Ah, I see! Thanks for explaining the issue. Can we write a program to
 check for 3-edge-connectedness? If that is not too hard, then we can at
 least include the dual graph method for a large class of graphs (and many
 that other people are interested in). For graphs which fail that test, we
 can leave a {{{NotImplemented}}} error. Does that seem doable?
