Well this is easy to change back later. But the term region doesn't really
help even for the coordinate systems as you first create a Window and then
a Region and people don't really know if this region is in the window or
the 3D world. In addition, there is nearly no documentation on this part of
code something that needs to change soon.

that there are many scenes in the world and that each one of them has each
own coordinate system.
