get pcells within a polygonal area, hierarchically

We have a polygon (not rectangle) at the top level, and pcells within that polygon's area, at various levels of hierarchy.  We would like to read properties from all of those pcells.

A version of geSelectArea that would allow a start and stop level, instead of only selecting in the top level, would accomplish the goal.  dbGetOverlaps descends the hierarchy, and would work great if you could specify a non-rectangular search area.

Any ideas?

Thanks
