Never tried it, and one shouldn't make a dragger a child on something
it's dragging as it'll be a circular loop.

Kinda of, for sure you won't want to transform the geometry twice.
However, logically having a parent dragged around by the child which
gets dragged around with the parent will lead to a circular loop in
managing the intersection testing, transforms and rendering - it would
be a mess.

The best way to use draggers is as siblings to transform - such just
attach them to the same parent as the transform, or in their own
subgraph and let them work independently and be the transforms be
synced to them.
