/**
 * Abstract model that provides behavior for wrapping a property
 * value model and listening for changes to aspects of the *value* contained
 * by the property value model. Changes to the actual value are also monitored.
 * 
 * This is useful if you have a value that may change, but whose aspects can also
 * change in a fashion that might be of interest to the client.
 * 
 * NB: Clients will need to listen for two different change notifications: a property
 * change event will be be fired when the value changes; a state change event
 * will be fired when an aspect of the value changes.
 * 
 * Subclasses need to override two methods:
 * 
 * #engageValue_()
 *     begin listening to the appropriate aspect of the value and call
 *     #valueAspectChanged(Object) whenever the aspect changes
 * 
 * #disengageValue_()
 *     stop listening to the appropriate aspect of the value
