I did some thinking about an ultimately unfunded problem of rapidly
computing distance to nearest surface of a set of arbitrary
scaled/translated geometric primitives (at successive steps of a
random walk). If anyone has any particular insight into efficient
solutions, I am all ears.

Indeed. I'd consider helping out on that one.
