I also added reference to this nice doc in our FloatUtil class:

<https://jogamp.org/deployment/jogamp-next/javadoc/jogl/javadoc/com/jogamp/opengl/math/FloatUtil.html#getZBufferEpsilon%28int,%20float,%20float%29>

<https://jogamp.org/deployment/jogamp-next/javadoc/jogl/javadoc/com/jogamp/opengl/math/FloatUtil.html#getZBufferValue%28int,%20float,%20float,%20float%29>
