Dear Boost community,

I would like to process 2D geometry for a finite element solver using
boost.polygon. I programmed it, it's working fine. I use the
polygon_data and polygon_set_data types from boost.polygon.

Now I would like to attach information to the boundary segments. Then
I'd like to do boolean operations. At the end I would like to have the
boundary information merged. Is this possible with boost.polygon?

A attached a little drawing of what behavior I would like to achieve,
colors code the boundary markers.

thanks a lot in advance,
Best regards,
Andreas
