Make intermediate buffer optional

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Someone on the forum argued it is a big overhead... got to check if we can 
easily switch it on/off.

What I'd like to do for this issue:
- Keep the intermediate buffer : it could be useful later on (attaching tags 
and other logical info to vertices), but with an option to have direct output.
- Get rid of ManualObject : it's very useful and easy to use to begin with, but 
it's yet another layer of vertices buffering...

Even if ManualObject is gotten rid of, there should still be "dynamic mode" : a 
mode where you can easily tweak parameters of a generator, and see the result 
immediately, without necessarily recreating the hardware buffers.
Example use case : you want to draw a road in sim city game, and see the result 
of your editing as you move the mouse cursor.
