What are the use-cases?
Why aren't "multiply" and "inverse" enough?
I must admit I'm new to quaternions and stumbled into the project
while
trying to improve my understanding so I'm not going to claim great
knowledge of how common these operations are. I was primarily
thinking of
Quaternion Interpolation - SLERP and SQUAD. It seems to me that you
end up
creating inverse instances and throwing them away a lot and I thought
it
would be good to reduce that overhead.
Surely, the class "Quaternion" is minimal but, before adding to
the API, we be careful to have use-cases for low-level operations.
Those mentioned above seems more high-level, tied to a specific
domain (see also "Commons Geometry", another new component not yet
released) but I may be wrong...
