Hello,

I've started digging in to ol-cesium while developing an Angular 5 
application that uses openlayers and cesium. My assumption going in was 
that the ol-cesium project would be dependent on vanilla versions of 
openlayers and cesium and strictly export an 'ol-cesium' module that 
provides additional functionality on top of its dependent libraries. After 
looking over some of the source, it appears that ol-cesium actually bundles 
aspects of the openlayers project in with ol-cesium functionality and 
exports a custom ol module. If I am correct, I am curious about the 
motivation behind this decision instead of either keeping ol-cesium and 
openlayers distinct or pulling in the new functionality into mainline 
openlayers.

In the ideal case, I would like to be able to use ol-cesium along side my 
existing openlayers/cesium installations. If I had to downgrade/upgrade 
versions of either library, I would certainly understand. The necessity to 
use the custom exported ol module from ol-cesium means I need to refactor 
some of my application code because the closure compiler mangles the whole 
ol object, which I have already imported from openlayers.

Any thoughts on this would be much appreciated.

Thank you,
Eric
