[Bf-committers] Commit access for branch

[Brecht Van Lommel]

It's not clear to me that being triangle based only is a good thing about
dynamic topology. It would be better if it preserved ngons and only
triangulated parts of the mesh where actual changes are being made. And
also did not lose vertex colors and UV maps.

Maybe it's possible to use MVert and MPoly, and find a way to dynamically
grow/shrink the arrays? Then there would be one less special case in the
sculpt code.
