Research direction

Start by locating the ofQuaternion get() entry point and the ofMatrix4x4 type, then compare the requested API with commit 2536a4677686d30c52fa9f5e3791e23d5196d3bd. Confirm the expected behavior when no ofMatrix4x4& argument is supplied and check existing matrix/quaternion tests or examples. Done means the shortcut is available and existing behavior remains intact.
