	/** Subclass of BillboardChain which automatically leaves a trail behind
		one or more Node instances.
	@remarks
		An instance of this class will watch one or more Node instances, and
		automatically generate a trail behind them as they move. Because this
		class can monitor multiple modes, it generates its own geometry in 
		world space and thus, even though it has to be attached to a SceneNode
		to be visible, changing the position of the scene node it is attached to
		makes no difference to the geometry rendered.
	@par
		The 'head' element grows smoothly in size until it reaches the required size,
		then a new element is added. If the segment is full, the tail element
		shrinks by the same proportion as the head grows before disappearing.
	@par
		Elements can be faded out on a time basis, either by altering their colour
		or altering their alpha. The width can also alter over time.
	@par
		'v' texture coordinates are fixed at 0.0 if used, meaning that you can
		use a 1D texture to 'smear' a colour pattern along the ribbon if you wish.
		The 'u' coordinates are by default (0.0, 1.0), but you can alter this 
		using setOtherTexCoordRange if you wish.
