You should read the emails on imp-dev occasionally :-)
Anyway, that method should definitely not be made public as it isn't guaranteed to do anything useful. For some of the restraints (NonbondedRestraints) it returns nothing and for others, such as the PairListRestraint it globs together lots of particles which aren't actually interacting.
The best solution is probably to add a new virtual method get_interacting_pairs which returns a list of interacting particle pairs (since I think that is what you want). Or something similar. It would be quite easy to implement for existing restraints.
