Hi all,

I propose to move all the Overlays logic to a separated extension.

Why?

Well, basically because:

1) In real use cases, I think, a stand-alone GUI solution is used instead of basic Overlays.
2) Overlays are just a restricted use case of, more general, geometry primitives drawing (see: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1906)
3) Split the core from extension concepts is usually a winning idea.

The only problem I can see is that Overlays are also used in built-in samples so my proposal is to build by default the extension with default build configuration.

Sounds like a good idea, although I haven't looked into the source code, so maybe there are reasons against that restructuring that I currently may have overlooked.

Yeah, so maybe we can put this change in a release after the final 1.0.0.
