  \class    pat::VertexAssociation VertexAssociation.h "DataFormats/PatCandidates/interface/Vertexing.h"
  \brief    Analysis-level structure for vertex-related information

  pat::VertexAssociation holds a reference to a vertex and extended information like the distance between the object and the vertex.

  For convenience, pat::VertexAssociation behaves like a VertexRef, that is (*assoc) is a reco::Vertex.

  The original proposal is at https://hypernews.cern.ch/HyperNews/CMS/get/physTools/587.html
