/**
 * Abstract class that provides support for wrapping a {@link WritablePropertyValueModel}
 * and listening for changes to <em>aspects</em> of the <em>value</em> contained
 * by the {@link WritablePropertyValueModel}. Changes to the {@link WritablePropertyValueModel}'s
 * value are also monitored.
 * <p>
 * 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.
 * <p>
 * <strong>NB:</strong> Clients will need to listen for two different change notifications:
 * a property change event will be be fired when the <em>value</em> changes;
 * a state change event will be fired when an <em>aspect</em> of the value changes.
 * <p>
 * Subclasses need to override two methods:<ul>
 * <li>{@link #engageValue_()}<p>
 *     begin listening to the appropriate aspect of the value and call
 *     {@link #valueAspectChanged()} whenever the aspect changes
 *     (this will fire a state change event)
 * <li>{@link #disengageValue_()}<p>
 *     stop listening to the appropriate aspect of the value
 * </ul>
