Hello!

Has anyone in the FEniCS comunity used FEniCS to solve for the signed distance 
function?

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signed_distance

This functions gives the distance to the boundary for any given point inside 
the domain. I would like to compute this for the vertices of a mesh. It looks 
like it is a nontrivial problem and I wonder if any of you have put your teeth 
into this one.
