/*
  LinearPath is a descendent to Path that linearly interpolates between its
  CONTROL points. Since it is virtuall identical to its ancestor, little new code is
  needed. The reason why it exists is so that there is a class which formally asserts
  that the path is a continuous linear interpolation between its CONTROL points.

  LinearPath therefore can be built from a ConStruct.
