+/**
+Defines an interface so that user data can be stored in the DOM tree.
+Applications that wish to store user data in the DOM tree must wrap the user
+data in a class that implements this interface.
+
+There are two common patterns for implementors of this interface:
+
+1)  Instance-based implementation
+The implementing class stores the user data.  The object can be duplicated with
+CloneL() to form a new object that duplicates the user data.  When Destroy() is
+called, the user data attached to the object is destroyed, but other duplicates
+may continue to hold the data.
+
+2)  Reference-counted implementation
+The implementing class points to the user data.  The object can be duplicated,
+but the user data is not duplicated.  When Destroy() is called, the object is
+destroyed, but the user data is not destroyed unless this is the last object
+referring to this data.
