I appreciate the separation of the triangulation from the interpolation,
but I also like natural neighbor.

But is it really only usable with delauney triangulations  I can see that
it may not have very nice properties when applied with a very
non-delaunay triangulation, but I can't see why it it wouldn't  be
computable. Or am I missing something?
