Hi Dan,

SceneView is part of the original beginnings of the OSG, when it was
single threaded, single context, and is now scheduled for deprecation.
 It will eventually be replaced entirely by functionality in
osgViewer::Renderer, but for now I've simply reused SceneView.

Hi Robert -- There are large projects out there based on SceneView and getting along just fine without osgViewer. Removing SceneView would, at best, require them to migrate SceneView out of OSG and into their own app (where it would continue to work, barring future incompatible changes in OSG). And at worst, cost them an expensive port and re-verification of their product.

I support marking SceneView as deprecated and replaced by Renderer, but think it would be wise to avoid changes to OSG that render SceneView inoperable.
