It is more easier to understand, e.g., how to rotate an object
which is not located at origin if the sequence tran(-p), rot(a),
tran(p) is used than if the final matrix is used.
That is why I think the system is more "correct". No need to ask
which is performed first: rotation or translation.

Keeping tran and rot nodes in the graph makes the system more
complex but the nodes can be optimized away if the cylinder
node supports translation and rotation.
