--- Like ellipsoidapply, but only keeps changes that replace airlike nodes, and discards any other changes made.
-- Takes a backup copy of the defined region, runs the given function, and then
-- restores the bits around the edge that aren't inside the largest ellipsoid that will fit inside the defined region.
-- @param	pos1	Position	The 1st position defining the region boundary
-- @param	pos2	Position	The 2nd positioon defining the region boundary 
-- @param	func	function	The function to call that performs the action in question. It is expected that the given function will accept no arguments.
