Current node signature has fields<br clear="all">
MFString [] info []<br clear="all">
SFString [] title ""<br clear="all">
<br clear="all">
Since these fields are both accessType initializeOnly, they cannot be changed<br clear="all">
at run time.<br clear="all">
<br clear="all">
This is unsatisfactory since an author may want to create or modify a scene<br clear="all">
programmatically at run time. For example, after Inlining new content, the<br clear="all">
scene title might need to change.<br clear="all">
<br clear="all">
Recommended field signature:<br clear="all">
MFString [in out] info []<br clear="all">
SFString [in out] title ""<br clear="all">
<br clear="all">
This change would be a minor change for browser builders, and no change in<br clear="all">
compatibility for existing content.<br clear="all">
