Changes

* We can't yet change a Canvas View to show a different view, e.g. swap between tail-camera and gear-camera. The underlying CompositeViewer has full support for destroying and creating new views, and Canvas supports adding/removing elements, so hopefully this will be relatively easy to address.

* Apparently it should be possible to make a Canvas View show different affects, such as infra-red vision.

* Apparently it should be possible to make a Canvas View show different affects, such as infra-red vision or artificial terrain. The implementation internally uses a Compositor instance to manage the view's rendering pipeline, so it is possible to completely change the Effects and shaders that the view uses.
