This is probably an argument for going to represententations built for 3d in the first place for AR applications where local coordinates play a necessary role, but concievably there is a niche for our lightweight geo standards extended by addition of a transformation node.
I concur. It's convenient to have an idea of a local coordinate system. I've always been slightly surprised by how the GML community ignored the work of the VRML community. Convenience concepts such as transform nodes, multiple instancing of geometry and behavior nodes make expressing ideas more succinct.
