[x3d-public] geo / bubbles shader scene

Doug, it’s supposed to look like the this image:

But your below modifications means that we should standardize our names for various matrices etc.  (fw_…) between X3D players so that our shader code is portable.  Does anyone want to take this up?  Also it would be good if we could coordinate with PlayCanvas.com on this as well.  I don’t want to modify my shaders for every single app I write and every browser I use.  Is there a good solution?
