I'm using subdivision to increase the complexity and curve of a model, but the piece that I am manipulating is really supposed to match up with another piece that is not subdivided.

A simplified case of this would be if I had a box and a cylinder, and a convex hull created to join them, then wanted to subdivide the hull for some reason. I still need the edges to match up afterwards.

I can work around this for now, but it would be nice to have a way to deal with the situation (define certain edges as 'open' or something so as not to subdivide at those points).
