/**
* A Fork serves as grouping device within the Session.
* Within the timeline, forks are used to organise continuous trails of consecutive
* clips -- similar to the role of "Tracks" in other editing applications. Just, in
* Lumiera a Fork is \em only a grouping device and not limited just to video or audio.
* Moreover, Forks are also used to organise and group clips in preparation to editing
* (the so called "media bins"). And forks can be used to create assortments of effects
* and other editing tools. In all these cases, the Fork creates a \em scope.
*
* The corresponding Placement by which this Fork object is attached to the session
* defines fallback placing properties to be used by all objects placed within the
* scope of this fork, unless individual objects specify more concrete placements.
* Typically, the placement within a fork of the timeline is used to derive the
* default processing pipe connections, define a layer or pan for sound and also
* for for disabling groups of clips. But note that forks are always nested,
* forming a tree like grouping device with hierarchically nested scopes.
* \par
* This Fork Media Object (sometimes referred to as "fork-MO") is always dealt with
* locally within one Sequence. Client code normally doesn't have to care for creating
* or retrieving a fork-MO. Rather, it refers to the global fork-asset-ID. The same
* holds true when placing some other Media Object into the scope of a fork:
* the corresponding placement just refers the global forkID, while the builder
* automatically retrieves the matching fork-MO for the Sequence in question.
