[Community] Does shapely have the GEOS correlate of projecting a point onto a line?

[Roy Hyunjin Han]

Hi,

I see that GEOS added the ability to project a point onto a line a few 
months ago.
http://trac.osgeo.org/geos/ticket/285

PostGIS already seems to have this ability.

Can we access this GEOS functionality using Python through Shapely?

Thanks for maintaining this package,
RHH
