Description
It would be very helpful if the GenericGeometries would have a method which allows to set the corner coordinates of an existing object. So far this is only possible in the constructor.
Rationale: I would like to use GGs for the intersection geometries of UGGrid. There, the Intersection classes have geometries as members which are set to the appropriate values every time intersectionGlobal()/Local() is called. Without the requested methods I'd have to create them anew every time intersectionGlobal() is called.
