/*!

Implementations of MPxComponentConverter must be registered with Maya through
MDrawRegistry.

MPxComponentConverters are registered with a unique render item name.  
A registered MPxComponentConverter will be used to perform custom viewport 2.0 selection.

They are used to convert selection intersection data to a list of object components (MFnComponent),
by matching the index buffer positions (MIntersection::index()) to valid component ids.

The same converter can be registered against different render item name,
meaning that different render items can share the same component converter.
