[postgis] JTS vs Java2D

The fundamental thing to note about plans for merging the JTS spatial
algorithms into the PostGIS is that (failing some big change to
PostgreSQL to allow server-side Java) step one will be a port of JTS
from Java to C++. Once that is accomplished, the merge becomes less
problematic. The goal would be to have JTS (now C++TS) still formed as a
library which can be used independantly of PostGIS if necessary (like,
on the client side, as in your example).
