16  This extension has the same goal as the OpenGL ES `GL_OVR_multiview`
17  extension - it enables rendering to multiple "`views`" by recording a single
18  set of commands to be executed with slightly different behavior for each
19  view.
20  It includes a concise way to declare a render pass with multiple views, and
21  gives implementations freedom to render the views in the most efficient way
22  possible.
