Extension checking/function call set up is both a strong and a weak
point in the OSG, there are motivations for centralising extension
setup and motivations for keeping them local to classes - so the OSG
has ended up doing both in different places, sometimes for good
reasons, sometime for the wrong reasons...  It'd be nice to have a
simpler and more manageable scheme that avoids the issues of being
pulled in different directions.  OpenGL ES and OpenGL 3.x into the mix
will further complicate things unless we do come up with a new
scheme...

Thanks,
Robert.
