I'm not clear on what geografting is. ??

Adding geometry to existing geometry, and/or swapping existing geometry with some other geometry. Pretty much the only time it's used in Poser is with the native male naughty bits. But that doesn't work correctly with weightmapped figures because when you turn the parts on or off it makes the maps associated with the bodypart its attached to explode, basically. Some people also use it for mechanical parts on different models. If it doesn't need to be weightmapped then it can work well. But if we had a better system in place then it could be used for all sorts of things - like adding horns and tails or other limbs to characters, or swapping feet with claws or hooves. Or swap the sleeves on a shirt or legs on pants from long to short, rolled to straight, etc. Tons of possibilities.
