Description

Would be very handy to port the intercept function in order to get an interception between 2 or more polygons.
I've needed it in the past and still need it today.
In JS it works very well, but no luck for Java.

Research direction

The request is to port the JavaScript intercept function for intersections between two or more polygons, but it names no Java file or test. Start by locating the existing JavaScript implementation and the corresponding Java geometry entry points; done means the Java API supports the requested polygon cases with behavior matching the JavaScript version.
