As an idea for a feature, it could be good to have a bounding box
variation which returned x,y values,
($min_x,$min_y, $max_x,$max_y) = $planar->bbox_xy()
I had an urge for this when wanting to iterate points over a polygon's
extent, so I wanted the min,max values individually rather then the way
$planar->bbox() gives a new polygon bounding box. It being useful for
plotting a polygon, to know its extents before beginning.
Perhaps something along the lines below, cutting bbox() into two parts.
