new Browser Information node types to give specific information about the scene to the browser:
Background
Provides a shaded plane and/or distant geometry to be used as a backdrop, drawn behind the displayed scene.
NavigationInfo
Provides hints to the browser about what kind of viewer to use (walk, examiner, fly, etc.), suggested average speed of travel, a radius around the camera for use by collision detection, and an indication of whether the browser should turn on a headlight.
