It should be possible with Python. There are already some internal routines to add a triangle, and I have some scripts that work with the vertices in a Group. This triangulation process would locate the center of each facet and draw a new edge from each vertex of the facet to the center. So a triangle would turn into 3 new facets, a rectangle would turn into 4 new facets, and so on. (Of course, very few Poser meshes have anything besides tri and quad facets; and if they do, those facets ought to be triangulated anyway!) You would then have to re-export the mesh as a new OBJ, but the shape would be preserved and it wouldn't require re-boning.
