X3D4 has a many description fields that are helpful ways for an author (or authoring tool) to express model purpose/intent in a simple way that can be communicated to others, namely users or other authors.
Default value of /description/ is empty string, so these are always optional.
Am tuning the specification definitions of both TextureProjector nodes, which we've decided implement X3DLightNode. They also already have /description/ fields.
Wondering, shouldn't we similarly add /description/ field to X3DLightNode (DirectionalLight PointLight SpotLight) as well?
Can't hurt, can help, and consistency is always good.
Opinions welcome please.
all the best, Don
