    Base class for proxy objects of all Path operations.
    Use this class as a base class for new operations. It provides properties
    and some functionality for the standard properties each operation supports.
    By OR'ing features from the feature list an operation can select which ones
    of the standard features it requires and/or supports.
    The currently supported features are:
        FeatureTool          ... Use of a ToolController
        FeatureDepths        ... Depths, for start, final
        FeatureHeights       ... Heights, safe and clearance
        FeatureStartPoint    ... Supports setting a start point
        FeatureFinishDepth   ... Operation supports a finish depth
        FeatureStepDown      ... Support for step down
        FeatureNoFinalDepth  ... Disable support for final depth modifications
        FeatureBaseVertexes  ... Base geometry support for vertexes
        FeatureBaseEdges     ... Base geometry support for edges
        FeatureBaseFaces     ... Base geometry support for faces
        FeatureLocations     ... Base location support
        FeatureCoolant       ... Support for operation coolant
        FeatureDiameters     ... Support for turning operation diameters
    The base class handles all base API and forwards calls to subclasses with
    an op prefix. For instance, an op is not expected to overwrite onChanged(),
    but implement the function opOnChanged().
    If a base class overwrites a base API function it should call the super's
    implementation - otherwise the base functionality might be broken.
