  I had similar thoughts when I read John's reply. It would be highly
advantagous if you could use his tools with existing mesh files instead
of only those you can generate yourself. For example many low polygon
count models are available for free on the net but are of poor quality
because of the low polygon count. The perfect solution of course if
subdivision of the existing triangles to help smooth curves and moderate
the number of seemingly flat faces. Sounds like a good suggestion to me.
