That's a good list of methods to make. You will still have to create 
something that will index the mesh first, though, unless you want to 
exhaustively search the mesh every time you call one of these. These 
methods should most likely act on the information in the index, not 
directly on the mesh. Now the real question for this whole problem 
is: what is the best information structure for the index? Whatever it 
is, it should probably be coded directly into the c source and given 
a thin wrapper in Python. That way, future coders can use it 
internally for all kinds of neat stuff (winged-edge modelling, 
anyone?)
