If NMesh was deprecated, would it be possible to write a python wrapper 
around it?  That way existing scripts could use the wrapper instead of 
having to do a full rewrite.

And I noticed that in the verts.extend C function the vert list is 
reallocated every time.  I would think that allocating extra space at 
each call (so that the list is reallocated every 10 .extends, the other 
9 calls using this extra allocated space) would be faster, although 
admittedly I've only done this for pointer arrays so I have no 
experience with this sort of thing.
