/**
 * <p>
 * IDataModels are the core piece of a framework used to simplify data collection, operation
 * execution, and Wizard generation.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * IDataModels are primarily an intelligent mechanism for managing data. Each IDataModel tracks
 * specific Objects known as "properties". Each property may be set or get using its property name.
 * A Collection of property names for an IDataModel instance may be retreived using
 * <code>getAllProperties()</code>. In addition to getting/setting properties, IDataModels may
 * also provide default values for unset properties, human readable descriptors for properties,
 * enumerations of valid property values, validation for properties, and enablement for properties.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * IDataModels may also be nested (and unnested) recursively within another. When one IDataModel is
 * nested within another, then client code may access all properties on the former through the
 * latter. This is especially useful when the same IDataModel (tracking the same properties) may be
 * used within the context of several different broader scenarios. Nesting may apply to any
 * IDataModel, and may be abitraryly deep (even cylical if you dare). Nesting offers flexibility,
 * especially for extension by 3rd party clients.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Each IDataModel may also supply an IDataModelOperation (a subclass of
 * org.eclipse.core.commands.operations.IUndoableOperation) for execution. When executed within the
 * IDataModel framework all these operations are inherently and abitrarily extendable.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Each IDataModel may also indirectly supply a DataModelWizard. This indirection is necessary to
 * spilt UI dependencies from the core IDataModel framework. DataModelWizards are also inherently
 * extendable.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * IDataModels are not meant to be instantiated directly, rather they are built from an
 * IDataModelProvider. Clients wishing to define their own IDataModel must do so by implementing an
 * IDataModelProvider. Clients wishing to utilize an IDataModel must create it using the
 * DataModelFactory with the associated IDataModelProvider.
 * </p>
 * 
 * <p>
 * This interface is not intended to be implemented by clients.
