relationship [-break] [-relationshipData string]
relationship is undoable, queryable, and editable.
This is primarily for use with file IO. Rather than write out the specific attributes/connections required to maintain a relationship, a description of the related nodes/plugs is written instead. The relationship must have an owner node, and have a specific type. During file read, maya will make the connections and/or set the data necessary to represent the realtionship in the dependency graph.
In query mode, return type is based on queried flag.
