/** Everything related to graphics and visualization lives in this namespace. The nuclex
    video subsystem is managed by the VideoServer, which uses plugins to provide a series
    of video devices which can each be seen as a graphics card interfaces through a specific
    API. This means that a graphics card may appear multiple times, once through OpenGL, once
    through Direct3D for example.
    
    A video device can spawn a renderer, which is an actual instance of the device on which
    resources can be allocated and rendering can be performed.
