Actually, I was interested in this kind of problem, too. Right now, I am 
using 
a method that's quite clumsy: getting the plane containing the triangle, its 
normal, following the normal to find the intersection, then checking if the 
intersection is within the triangle or not. I needed this in order to get the 
"distance of a point to a triangulation".

Best,

Daniel
