Yup. Something ought to be done, as it has confused me for a while. What 
we use it for is:

1. temporary disabling during traversal (intersect/fbo_viewport/etc uses 
this)
2. user controlled activation (maybe not needed since a switchgroup can 
do the same thing)
3. selective rendering (where the mask comes in)

How about reserving a few bits of the travmask for 1 & 2 and provide two 
separate setActive() functions for each?

That would make it backwards compatible as well as clarifying things a 
bit more.

Cheers
