  // Description:
  // Get the shift and scale vectors computed by CreateVBO;
  // or set the values CreateVBO and AppendVBO will use.
  // Note that the "Set" methods **must** be called before the
  // first time that CreateVBO or AppendVBO is invoked and
  // should never be called afterwards.
  //
  // The CoordShiftAndScaleMethod describes how the shift
  // and scale vectors are obtained (or that they should never
  // be used).
  // The GetCoordShiftAndScaleEnabled() method returns true if
  // a shift and scale are currently being applied (or false if not).
  //
  // The "Get" methods are used by the mapper to modify the world
  // and camera transformation matrices to match the scaling applied
  // to coordinates in the VBO.
  // CreateVBO only applies a shift and scale when the midpoint
  // of the point bounding-box is distant from the origin by a
  // factor of 10,000 or more relative to the size of the box
  // along any axis.
  //
  // For example, if the x coordinates of the points range from
  // 200,000 to 200,001 then the factor is
  // 200,000.5 / (200,001 - 200,000) = 2x10^5, which is larger
  // than 10,000 -- so the coordinates will be shifted and scaled.
  //
  // This is important as many OpenGL drivers use reduced precision
  // to hold point coordinates.
  //
  // These methods are used by the mapper to determine the
  // additional transform (if any) to apply to the rendering transform.
