	/** Allows the rendering of a chain of connected billboards.
	@remarks
		A billboard chain operates much like a traditional billboard, i.e. its
		segments always face the camera; the difference being that instead of
		a set of disconnected quads, the elements in this class are connected
		together in a chain which must always stay in a continuous strip. This
		kind of effect is useful for creating effects such as trails, beams,
		lightning effects, etc.
	@par
		A single instance of this class can actually render multiple separate
		chain segments in a single render operation, provided they all use the
		same material. To clarify the terminology: a 'segment' is a separate 
		sub-part of the chain with its own start and end (called the 'head'
		and the 'tail'. An 'element' is a single position / colour / texcoord
		entry in a segment. You can add items to the head of a chain, and 
		remove them from the tail, very efficiently. Each segment has a max
		size, and if adding an element to the segment would exceed this size, 
		the tail element is automatically removed and re-used as the new item
		on the head.
	@par
		This class has no auto-updating features to do things like alter the
		colour of the elements or to automatically add / remove elements over
		time - you have to do all this yourself as a user of the class. 
		Subclasses can however be used to provide this kind of behaviour 
		automatically. @see RibbonTrail
