RigidBody::set_transformation(t) transform the rigid body with respect
to its internal coordinate system.
However, many times we need to update the transformation of a rigid
body according to a global transformation, for example move the
centroid of
a rigid body to some point in space.
Is it possible to add another function that allows such functionality ?

coordinate system ?
If the answer is that it is relative to the rigid body internal
coordinate system -how can you move the rigid body to a specific
position in space ?
