[Bf-funboard] Reasoning behind child - parent coordinates

[Gatis Kurzemnieks]

How about adding a new parenting method like 'Make Parent without Inverse'

to local transform of the child? Basically - a standard parenting operation
like in other software. It's just quite hard to reproduce this behavior now
without such command.
