/**
 * Simplified abstract implementation of ISetProperty. This class takes care of
 * most of the functional requirements for an ISetProperty implementation,
 * leaving only the property-specific details to subclasses.
 * <p>
 * Subclasses must implement these methods:
 * <ul>
 * <li> {@link #getElementType()}
 * <li> {@link #doGetSet(Object)}
 * <li> {@link #doSetSet(Object, Set, SetDiff)}
 * <li> {@link #adaptListener(ISimplePropertyListener)}
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * In addition, we recommended overriding {@link #toString()} to return a
 * description suitable for debugging purposes.
