Unless I missed something in my searches, you will have to write your own
meshifier that preserves the "indexedness." I STILL tweaking this
algorithm... which began with Haberli's tomesh.c code (not fun) ...which
seems to be very similar (in some respects) to the code used in pfdTMesher so
you may want to start there instead.
