/**
* A {@linkplain Complex complex} with all the geometric properties of a surface. Thus, this
* composite can be considered as a type of {@linkplain OrientableSurface orientable surface}.
* Essentially, a composite surface is a collection of oriented surfaces that join in pairs on
* common boundary curves and which, when considered as a whole, form a single surface.

* @todo This interface extends (indirectly) both {@link org.opengis.geometry.primitive.Primitive} and
* {@link org.opengis.geometry.complex.Complex}. Concequently, there is a clash in the semantics
* of some set theoretic operation. Specifically, {@code Primitive.contains(...)}
* (returns FALSE for end points) is different from {@code Complex.contains(...)}
* (returns TRUE for end points).
