        @remarks
        You should be aware that the ordering and structure of the
        VertexDeclaration can be very important on DirectX with older
        cards,so if you want to maintain maximum compatibility with
        all render systems and all cards you should be careful to follow these
        rules:<ol>
        <li>VertexElements should be added in the following order, and the order of the
        elements within a shared buffer should be as follows:
        position, blending weights, normals, diffuse colours, specular colours,
            texture coordinates (in order, with no gaps)</li>
        <li>You must not have unused gaps in your buffers which are not referenced
        by any VertexElement</li>
        <li>You must not cause the buffer & offset settings of 2 VertexElements to overlap</li>
        </ol>
        Whilst GL and more modern graphics cards in D3D will allow you to defy these rules,
        sticking to them will ensure that your buffers have the maximum compatibility.
        @par
        Like the other classes in this functional area, these declarations should be created and
        destroyed using the HardwareBufferManager.

        @remarks
                Why do we have this binding list rather than just have VertexElement referring to the
                vertex buffers direct? Well, in the underlying APIs, binding the vertex buffers to an
                index (or 'stream') is the way that vertex data is linked, so this structure better
                reflects the realities of that. In addition, by separating the vertex declaration from
                the list of vertex buffer bindings, it becomes possible to reuse bindings between declarations
                and vice versa, giving opportunities to reduce the state changes required to perform rendering.
        @par
                Like the other classes in this functional area, these binding maps should be created and
                destroyed using the HardwareBufferManager.
