       :param str model_details: Detailed description of the system, like an
                                 abstract.

       The system contains a number of simple flat lists of various objects,
       for example :attr:`alignments`. After constructing objects they should
       usually be added to these lists so that a hierarchy of classes is
       formed and is ultimately written out to mmCIF/BinaryCIF. After reading
       a file the resulting ``System`` object will also populate these lists.

       Most objects do not need to be explicitly added to the system since
       they are referenced by other objects. For example :class:`Template`
       objects are not usually added to the system because they are added
       to alignments which in turn are added to the system. If however an
       "orphan" Template is desired (not part of an alignment) the system does
       maintain an appropriate list (``System.templates`` in this case) to
       which it can be added.
