This is getting to be pretty long so I want to close this off by stating that macumber had suggested intersection does not have to happen within openstudio. In fact, according to him, intersecting within the 2.9.1 SketchUp plugin happens with SketchUp methods. So he suggested that FreeCAD might have its own intersecting methods. That is indeed so, and it may well be that this is the real answer here. It might also address the odd diagonals I tend to receive in SketchUp when my surfaces included "insular" patches. At any rate, I believe his suggestion got me unstuck, so thank you for that, macumber!
