That would be challenging for the whole sphere, since histogram can
only evaluate monotonic coordinate fields. You can always first remap
your coordinates using some projection which puts the ill-behaved
parts (nominally, the poles) far away, and preserves distance
locally. For example, if you have a small field (a degree or so) near
the pole, this would be a nice way of solving the converging longitude
lines issues. But generally? Sounds tough.
