    /** Resource holding data about 3D mesh.
        @remarks
            This class holds the data used to represent a discrete
            3-dimensional object. Mesh data usually contains more
            than just vertices and triangle information; it also
            includes references to materials (and the faces which use them),
            level-of-detail reduction information, convex hull definition,
            skeleton/bones information, keyframe animation etc.
            However, it is important to note the emphasis on the word
            'discrete' here. This class does not cover the large-scale
            sprawling geometry found in level / landscape data.
        @par
            Multiple world objects can (indeed should) be created from a
            single mesh object - see the Entity class for more info.
            The mesh object will have it's own default
            material properties, but potentially each world instance may
            wish to customise the materials from the original. When the object
            is instantiated into a scene node, the mesh material properties
            will be taken by default but may be changed. These properties
            are actually held at the SubMesh level since a single mesh may
            have parts with different materials.
        @par
            As described above, because the mesh may have sections of differing
            material properties, a mesh is inherently a compound contruct,
            consisting of one or more SubMesh objects.
            However, it strongly 'owns' it's SubMeshes such that they
            are loaded / unloaded at the same time. This is contrary to
            the approach taken to hierarchically related (but loosely owned)
            scene nodes, where data is loaded / unloaded separately. Note
            also that mesh sub-sections (when used in an instantiated object)
            share the same scene node as the parent.

            Tangent vectors are vectors representing the local 'X' axis for a given vertex based
            on the orientation of the 2D texture on the geometry. They are built from a combination
            of existing normals, and from the 2D texture coordinates already baked into the model.
            They can be used for a number of things, but most of all they are useful for 
            vertex and fragment programs, when you wish to arrive at a common space for doing
            per-pixel calculations.
        @par
            The prerequisites for calling this method include that the vertex data used by every
            SubMesh has both vertex normals and 2D texture coordinates.
		@param targetSemantic The semantic to store the tangents in. Defaults to

            of 2D texture coordinates, with which to calculate the tangents.

        @remarks
            Preparing a mesh to generate a shadow volume involves firstly ensuring that the 
            vertex buffer containing the positions for the mesh is a standalone vertex buffer,
            with no other components in it. This method will therefore break apart any existing
            vertex buffers this mesh holds if position is sharing a vertex buffer. 
            Secondly, it will double the size of this vertex buffer so that there are 2 copies of 
            the position data for the mesh. The first half is used for the original, and the second 
            half is used for the 'extruded' version of the mesh. The vertex count of the main 
            VertexData used to render the mesh will remain the same though, so as not to add any 
            overhead to regular rendering of the object.
            Both copies of the position are required in one buffer because shadow volumes stretch 
            from the original mesh to the extruded version. 
        @par
            Because shadow volumes are rendered in turn, no additional
            index buffer space is allocated by this method, a shared index buffer allocated by the
            shadow rendering algorithm is used for addressing this extended vertex buffer.
