MultiPolygon

Reading the manual on ST_SimplifyPreserveTopology (1) I cannot say if it
will avoid introducing intersections between polygons in a MultiPolygon,
or if it only avoids self-intersections in each polygon.
This uncertainty can be cleared up by specifying which object type(s) are
referred to in the phrase "..simplification occurs on a object-by-object
basis".
mleslie suggested Kevin or Regina will know, and that I assign robe.
