					// Upper bound for the maximal number of vertices when intersecting an
					// axis-aligned rectangle with a triangle in E2
					//
					// The rectangle and the triangle are in general position, and have 4 and 3
					// vertices, respectively.
					//
					//   Lemma: Since the rectangle is a convex polygon ( see
					//   http://mathworld.wolfram.com/ConvexPolygon.html for a definition), and
					//   has no holes, it follows that any straight line will intersect the
					//   rectangle's border line at utmost two times (with the usual
					//   tie-breaking rule, if the intersection exactly hits an already existing
					//   rectangle vertex, that this intersection is only attributed to one of
					//   the adjoining edges). Thus, having a rectangle intersected with
					//   a half-plane (one side of a straight line denotes 'inside', the
					//   other 'outside') will at utmost add _one_  vertex to the resulting
					//   intersection polygon (adding two intersection vertices, and removing at
					//   least one rectangle vertex):
					//
					//         *
					//     +--+-----------------+

					//    *|                    |
					//   * |                    |
					//     +--------------------+
					//
					//   Proof: If the straight line intersects the rectangle two
					//   times, it does so for distinct edges, i.e. the intersection has
					//   minimally one of the rectangle's vertices on either side of the straight
					//   line (but maybe more). Thus, the intersection with a half-plane has
					//   minimally _one_ rectangle vertex removed from the resulting clip
					//   polygon, and therefore, a clip against a half-plane has the net effect
					//   of adding at utmost _one_ vertex to the resulting clip polygon.
					//
					// Theorem: The intersection of a rectangle and a triangle results in a
					// polygon with at utmost 7 vertices.
					//
					// Proof: The inside of the triangle can be described as the consecutive
					// intersection with three half-planes. Together with the lemma above, this
					// results in at utmost 3 additional vertices added to the already existing 4
					// rectangle vertices.
					//
					// This upper bound is attained with the following example configuration:
					//
					//                               *
