 derived class to instantiate. Probably something like
 Scene.getManagerClassName() which can be implemented by an application

+* Zone Management
+The scene universe can be divided into zones.
+
+Zones contain a set of scenes and are traversed by a special mechanism
+(separate from scene to scene traversal).
+
+Zones provide scene summary for the scenes in the zone which can be used
+on the client to generate a map of the zone.
+
+Zones are identified by an integer of which the upper 8 bits is a zone
+type identifier and the lower 24 bits are the zone identifier.
