// Provides a data type for some arbitrary user geometry.
//
// A users geometry class can exist in the DAG by creating an
// MPxSurfaceShape (and UI) class for it and can also be passed through
// DG connections by creating an MPxGeometryData class for it.
//
// MPxGeometryData is the same as MPxData except it provides
// additional methods to modify the geometry data via an iterator.
