Just in case anyone here is interested. I have been working on a library to make Geometries/Meshes easier to work with. Code is not available yet, but just wanted to share in case I was not the only person on Earth that cares about this. :-)

Good to know! I am dabbling a bit with Python and geometry now. Building a script that does the grouping for clothing items. Sort of workflow accelerator. There are a lot of examples in this forum but you need to use the archive search. Some of the authors are still around and willing to help you. So: you are not alone.

Thank you for the explanation on 'sets' on your site. I had always been wondering what that was but I now understand it is essentially the raw database of vertex references. It allows to make mutations in the geometry without moving data around. A new definition simply causes the old definition being abandoned and replaced by new data.

Indeed not very well described in the Poser manual. The Runtime/Python folder has some examples of scripts working on geometry.
