Seems like a reasonable approach.  As long as the multiline object
could hold enough vertice information.  That appears doubtful to me.

Perhaps one could create a "trimmed-down" multiline that gave the
major components of the shape, then additional multiline objects for
those clients that could piece all of them together into one object.
