I'm mulling this over still... I'm wondering if a separate file, say 
G3DObjectAdditions, or even G3D*Additions where * was Sphere, Line, 
Bezier, Box, Plane and perhaps some others as I add them, would be 
nice. I am going to work on this for a while.

I'm thinking that then we could request from a geometric object a mesh 
object, and set the LOD. Moreover, we could request a set of LOD 
objects in a collection, or as a list. I'll work on that next.
