/** Transform - is group which all children are transformed by the the Transform's osg::Matrix.  
  * Typical uses
  * of the Transform is for positioning objects within a scene or 
  * producing trackball functionality or for animation.
  * The Transform node can be customized via the ComputeTransfromCallback which can be
  * attached to the node, this might be used to convert internal representations of the transformation
  * into generic osg::Matrix'c which are used during scene grpah traversal, such as CullTraversal and IntersectionTraversal.
  * Note, if the transformation matrix scales the subgraph then the
  * normals of the underlying geometry will need to be renormalized to
  * be unit vectors once more.  One can done transparently through OpenGL's 
  * use of either GL_NORMALIZE and GL_SCALE_NORMALIZE modes.  Further
  * background reading see the glNormalize documentation in the OpenGL Reference 
  * Guide (the blue book). To enable it in the OSG, you simple need to
  * attach a local osg::StateSet to the osg::Transform, and set the appropriate
  * mode to on via stateset->setMode(GL_NORMALIZE,osg::StateAttribute::ON);.
