DOM access to the is-point-inside-path function

The fill property <http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/painting.html#FillProperty> 
has rules to determine which points are in its shape.  I would like a
fill-rule that fills either the interior or the exterior depending on
whether a path is drawn clockwise or not.  Barring that, I would like
a way to emulate this in script.

Has anyone proposed/implemented a DOM interface that returns true if a
given point is inside a given shape?

I will consider counting edge-crossings but am curious about an easier
solution.

Cheers,
John
