Not entirely sure what you're asking. The basic root solver is the same 
type as the isosurface, a simple recursive bisection method. It builds a 
list of components that interact with the ray, and uses that list for 
the root solving. It just uses the first and last bounds intersection to 
limit the root finding interval, a smarter scheme will more efficiently 
bracket the individual roots.

I'm working on that...I've already posted images from the most important 
patches.
