/**
 * A {@code ValidationGroup} logically groups a set of GUI-components,
 * such as text fields, lists, tables, comboboxes etc, each validated
 * by one or more validators (such as the built-in ones provided by
 * the framework in {@link StringValidators}).
 *
 * <p><i><b>Note:</b> If you are validating Swing components, you will probably
 * want to use {@link
 * org.netbeans.validation.api.ui.swing.SwingValidationGroup} which contains
 * convenience add methods for common Swing components, and performs
 * Swing-specific threading correctness checks.</i>
 *
 * <p> A {@code ValidationGroup} is typically associated with a panel
 * containing GUI-components (such as a {@code JPanel} or {@code
 * JDialog} in Swing). The idea with logically grouping GUI-components
 * (as opposed to treating them completely separately) is to <b>to
 * indicate the most severe {@link Problem} in the panel</b> (graded
 * by {@link org.netbeans.validation.api.Severity}) -- the "lead
 * problem" of the group -- to the user in various ways. Even if the
 * user happens to currently be interacting with another GUI component
 * that has no error in it, the lead problem of the panel/group will
 * be visible to the user.
 *
 * <p>If there is more than one Problem that is the most severe (they
 * have equal Severity) in the group of UI-components, then the one in
 * the UI-component that has been most recently interacted with will
 * be the lead problem.
 *
 * <p> The way for the {@code ValidationGroup} to show the lead
 * problem in the UI is by using one or more instances of the {@link
 * ValidationUI} interface. {@code ValidationUI} instances can be
 * added by client code using the {@link
 * #addUI(org.netbeans.validation.api.ui.ValidationUI) } method.
 * One {@code ValidationUI} instance could indicate the lead
 * problem for example by showing a message in some status
 * bar. Another one could disable some OK-button (which could be
 * suitable if the lead problems has {@code Severity.FATAL}) etc. All
 * these {@code ValidationUI}s are updated whenever the lead problem
 * of the group changes.
 *
 * If the ValidationGroup contains UI-components whose validity
 * depends not only on their own state but on the state of each other
 * as well, they can be said to have validity interdependencies. In
 * such cases not only the state of each component needs to be
 * validated, but the combination of components as well. This is done
 * by passing a {@code GroupValidator} object when creating the
 * ValidationGroup. For more on that, see {@link GroupValidator}.
 *
 * <p> Now, to add a GUI-component to the {@code ValidationGroup},
 * client code would wrap it (together with the desired Validators)
 * into a {@link ValidationListener} that is then added to the {@code
 * ValidationGroup} using the {@link
 * #addItem(org.netbeans.validation.api.ui.ValidationItem, boolean) } method.  Note
 * that this is the generic but perhaps inconvenient case -- <b>the
 * subclass {@link
 * org.netbeans.validation.api.ui.swing.SwingValidationGroup} contains
 * a number of {@code add}-methods for convenience, to simplify this
 * procedure for common Swing components.</b>
 *
 * <p>Each {@code ValidationListener} listens to suitable GUI-events
 * (often key-press events or mouse-events). When such an event occurs
 * the {@code ValidationListener} will perform revalidation and then
 * notify its parent {@code ValidationGroup} so that it can reevaluate
 * its lead problem.
 *
 * <p>Not only ValidationListener:s can be added to ValidationGroup,
 * but so can other ValdiationGroups as well. (This is the reason why
 * ValidationListener and ValidationGroup share a common superclass,
 * {@link ValidationItem}, and that this is the type of the argument
 * of {@code ValidationGroup#add}.) This is useful when there are two
 * separate panels with their own {@code ValidationGroup}s, and one of
 * the panels is (perhaps temporarily) to be embedded into the other.
 * Whenever there is a change in one of the added child
 * ValidationGroup's components, it will drive the UI(s) belonging to
 * the parent group, as well as (optionally) its own. (The latter can
 * be disabled by passing {@code true} as second parameter to {@link
 * #addItem(org.netbeans.validation.api.ui.ValidationItem, boolean)  }
 * instead of {@code false}
 * 
 *
 * <p> The core functionality of the {@code ValidationGroup} with
 * added {@code ValidationItem}:s works as follows:
 *
 * <ul>
 *
 * <li>When an appropriate change in a UI component occurs, a {@code
 * ValidationListener} will observe that and make sure the component
 * is validated (by invoking the {@code Validator}(s)) and then
 * decorate the UI component if there is a Problem in it. This is
 * unless the ValidationListener is suspended, in which case nothing
 * at all will happen, see {@link
 * ValidationItem#runWithValidationSuspended }</li>
 *
 * <li>The ValidationListener will notify its parent ValidationGroup
 * about the validation. If there was a fatal {@code Problem} in that
 * UI component, then this will also become the lead problem of the
 * whole group because it is the most recent of the most severe
 * problems in the groups.</li>
 *
 * <li>If not, the most recent of the most severe of the problems of
 * the UI components in the ValidationGroup will be the lead
 * problem. (This does not involve actual revalidation of these
 * components, the problem that occured when the component last
 * triggered validation is assumed to still be there).</li>
 *
 * <li>When the lead problem of the ValidationGroup has been
 * determined, the <code>showProblem</code> method of the
 * <code>ValidationUI</code>:s of the group will be called. This may
 * for example involve disabling an OK-button if the lead problem is
 * fatal (and enabling it if not) and showing an error message. This
 * is unless this ValidationGroup has been added "with disabled UI" to
 * another ValidationGroup, in which case the Problem will not be
 * shown in the ValidationUI. </li>
 * 
 * <li>If this ValidationGroup has been added to another one then the
 * parent is notified. The parent ValidationGroup will then check if
 * its lead problem needs to be updated, update its ValidationUI:s
 * accordingly (unless it has a disabled UI) and notify its parent if
 * there is one -- and so on.
 * 
 *  </ul>
