For any and all geometries, or do you have cases? (we love cases...)

well,... hm. Could you put this into trac so we don't lose it? Best
would be in the GEOS trac, actually (http://trac.osgeo.org/geos) Once
you get into really large tolerances, preserving topology starts to
get problematic, for hopefully obvious reasons... I'm not sure how
robust Martin's routines are supposed to be as tolerance gets really
big.
