Hi!

I've been learning Bevy and LOVING IT, there's only one thing confusing me. Many components appear to be created magically even if not specified in the Bundle passed to commants.spawn.

For example, when I spawn just a Sprite component, the entity seems to automatically get a Transform component, even if I didn't give it one.

Similarly, this example spawns a Screenshot component, which apparently results in a Capturing component that can be queried later.

Are these "implicit" components documented somewhere? I took a short look at the TransformPlugin for example but I can't seem to figure out where these components come from.

Thanks y'all!
