-------------------------+-------------------------
 It is not possible to use a mask with v.surf.idw. The r.mask module only
 applies when reading data from disk and therefore has no effect on the
 interpolation area, which is always set to the entire region. This creates
 an unnecessary computation overhead when the desired area to interpolate
 does not cover the entire region.

 The v.surf.rst module already has an input parameter for this purpose
 (called mask). The goal would be for v.surf.idw to provide a similar
 parameter.
