Comment(by strk):

 uhm.. finding the _actual_ face containing it is what Scarponcini
 suggested as a possible change for handling the 'null' case. I dont' see
 it being appropriate when the caller explictly sets containment within a
 face as getting that wrong from the client side might reveal a bug in the
 user process, so we do want to notify that.

 Generally speaking there are a few other places where the ISO mandates
 might be more comfortable, and this is also true for simple geometries. I
 belive in such cases we should eventually make our own versions as
 friendly as they can be and keep the standard names for standard
 behaviors.
