Thanks, Sean. Such approach with creating entity tree from another thread
is somehow clear, but what to do with updating vertex and index buffers of
geometry of entity from another thread? Can be there any nice solution else
then prepare updating data and rules how it should be applied in separate
thread and passing them through signal to the main one and only there
update geometry?
