*
* This is an abstract interface class to the Scene Graph library.
* It allows you to specify how child nodes react to parent nodes.
* Normally a child will use it's parent's transforms to compute
* it's own global transforms. How this is performed depends on
* the type of relation. For example if the parent is a vertex
* parent to this child then the child should not inherit any
* rotation information from the parent. Or if the parent is a
* 'slow parent' to this child then the child should react
* slowly to changes in the parent's position. The exact relation
* is left for you to implement by filling out this interface
* with concrete examples.
*
* There is exactly one SG_ParentRelation per SG_Node. Subclasses
* should not be value types and should be allocated on the heap.
