Posting Bug 1452 here to be noticed .. and discussion, if applicable.

FYI, see
- https://jogamp.org/bugzilla//show_bug.cgi?id=1452
- https://jogamp.org/cgit/jogl.git/commit/?id=5d6e8a367c03644740187e500c6de5d3ac039d5e

Math functionality (PMVMatrix, Matrix4f, Vec4f, ..)
- shall be used toolkit agnostic, e.g. independent from OpenGL
- shall be reused within our upcoming Vulkan implementation
- may also move outside of JOGL, i.e. GlueGen or within its own package to be reused for other purposed.
   
The 'com.jogamp.opengl.util.PMVMatrix' currently also used to feed in GLUniformData
via the toolkit agnostic SyncAction and SyncBuffer
shall also be split to a toolkit agnostic variant.
   
An OpenGL PMVMatrix specialization implementing GLMatrixFunc can still exist,
being derived from the toolkit agnostic base implementation.
