pfGeoSet coordinate arrays are exposed, so you can do whatever you
want to them.

The only issue is when to do it so you don't collide with the draw
process using them (might cause tearing or anomalies). For a single
pipe application, you can diddle the coordinates in a draw callback
on the parent geode or if you multibuffer the geoset so you don't
collide with the one the draw is using you can do it in the
application process.

For complete safety in a multipipe application, each pipe needs its
own copy of the pfGeoSet to avoid collision or problems during frame
extension.
