In this example, the vertexOrdering is set to CLOCKWISE before a
Cylinder node is used . . . this is done because the intial camera
position is inside tme cylinder. Is the assumption that a spec
compliant browser will generate primitives with counterclockwise
vertex ordering valid? It would certainly be useful to be able to
depend on this behavior.
