 ** Media data is a specific kind of Asset.
 ** For the different <i>kinds</i> of Assets, we use sub-interfaces inheriting
 ** from the general Asset interface. To be able to get asset::Media instances
 ** directly from the AssetManager, we define a specialisation of the Asset ID.

 ** @ingroup asset
 ** @see asset.hpp for explanation
