The goal of forge is to provide rendering logic only i.e. the data provided to forge is expected to be readily passed onto OpenGL buffers. I think the support for massaging data in other formats into the one expected by OpenGL is better handled by data-conversion routines either written by specific user or another library. It falls outside of the scope of forge.
