  /******************************************************
   * Playback/Render process within the Lumiera Player.
   * This is a top-level implementation entity, created
   * by the PlayService when \em performing a timeline
   * or similar model object. A PlayProcess doesn't
   * perform calculations; rather it serves to group
   * all the handles, registrations, calculation contexts
   * and similar entries necessary to make the calculations
   * happen within the renderengine and to send the generated
   * data to an output sink.
   * 
   * @note PlayProcess entities are never directly visible.
   *       Client code handles and controls these processes
   *       through a lumiera::Play::Controller returned
   *       from the PlayService.
