GlobalTransformSensor

This sensor can be used to monitor the global-transformation of any node in the SceneGraph. It sends transformation_changed events if the global transformation of the parent changes. Since the system is a multiparent graph a node can have more than one global transformation and therefor the transformation_changed outslot has to be a MFMatrix. Hint: To get the components of transformation use a MatrixDecomposer node.
