Root Operator on Math Node

The Math Node delivers a great toolset with more than 30 Math Operations. Except for One - a Root Operation. Setting one up with the current Nodes (so that the index can be provided as a number greater than one) takes four Nodes, which can become a real problem on bigger Node Trees.

My idea (and patch I added) is a Root Operation in the Math Node.

I made this Proposal to see how many people agree on having a Root Operation.

Patch is here: developer.blender.org/D10591

in the meantime... sqrt(x) = x^(1/2) third root of x = x^(1/3) nth root of x = x^(1/n)

Yeah, this is basically the approach of this patch. But you shouldn't have to use multiple nodes to get it working properly...
