  @brief The area constrained manipulator.

  This manipulator moves the object inside a poligonal area.

  The user can drag the object inside a planar area, defined by a polygon.
  The polygon can be non convex, and is specified with a vector of vertexes.

  If the object's trajectory intersects some poligon side, it tries to slide
  around it, in a <em>"rubber band flavoured"</em> way.

  The object is assumed to initially be on the same position of the
  first vertex.

  This is a \b stateful manipulator, result of the Apply function is
  determined by the objects's position inside the area and
  by the mouse coordinates.
