Well, it's a matter of definition I guess but I choose not to call it mesh
data manipulation since the mesh data (in the file) remains constant. "Mesh
data manipulation" leads my thoughts to changing the written mesh data,
which it is not what happens. But of course all computations involve
internal manipulation of data but that's needless to say.
