Add boolean operations to meshes

[sambaPython24]

Hello,

it would be great to be able to use boolean operations between different (e.g. surface meshes) such as intersection, union and difference.

Thanks for the idea. This feature requires developing a pretty major geometry processing toolkit, and is not currently on the roadmap. I will tag this as a feature request for the future.

What is your use case, requiring this? (booleans over surface meshes are also not well-defined in the case of non-manifold or non-closed geometry, a problem closely studied in 3D printing. E.g. here's one example of toolkit supporting implicit surface modeling with these operations supported, but not differentiable: https://www.gradientspace.com/tutorials/2018/2/20/implicit-surface-modeling)
