// class ILuminaire
//  
//  This is an interface class that defines the operations and properties
//  of a luminaire. A luminaire is a lighting fixture. A luminaire is made
//  up by at least one light object and several other objects (geometry, etc)
//
//  This interface can be implemented by any plugin object, whether it is a 
//  helper, geometry, etc. 
//  Luminaire plugin objects can be used, for example,
//  as luminaire assembly head objects. In this case, the object's parameters 
//  defined in its param block can be parameter wired to the the parameters of
//  the light objects in the luminaire assembly. In this case, the methods of 
//  this interface should read and write the corresponding paramblock parameters 
//  of the object plugin.

    // shine at their ("factory") default intensity, while a dimmer value 
    // greater than 100 means that their intensity is amplified\multiplied above
    // the ("factory") default value.
    // In the case of standard Max light sources, "factory" default intensity 
    // means a certain arbitrary multiplier value that is chosen by the user.
    // In case of physically based light sources, "factory" default intensity 
    // means the intensity given in the light's photometric file.
