+/** specifies actions which can be transported with content events.
+
+ The situations under which contents will send ContentEvents of the various
+ action types are described below. The description is broken into a list of
+ useful definitions, a list of events that happen to contents, and a list of
+ reactions taken by contents in response to those events.
+
+ The definitions are as follows:
+
+ D1 A content C has an identifier id(C).
+
+ D2 A content C is in one of two states, Alive or Deleted.
+
+ D3 A folder content F has a set of children H(F) that is a set of content
+ identifiers. (For example, an "open" command will usualy return a
+ subset of the contents denoted by H(F).)
+
+ The events that can happen to contents (and that are of interest in this
+ context) are listed next. Note that 'event' here does not mean an
+ ContentEvent, but rather some event that occurs either because some content
+ processes a command, or because a content gets informed about a relevant
+ change in the underlying system it represents.
+
+ E1 The identifier of a content C changes from id1(C) == A to id2(C) == B,
+ denoted as
+
+ E1(C: A->B).
+
+ For example, this event may occur when content C processes a
+ "setPropertyValues" command changing its "Title" propery, or when a
+ folder that hierarchicaly contains C changes its identity.
+
+ E2 The state of a content C changes from Alive to Deleted, denoted as
+
+ E2(C).
+
+ For example, this event may occur when content C processes a "delete"
+ command, or when a content representing an IMAP message gets informed
+ by the IMAP server that the message has been deleted.
+
+ E3 The set of children of a folder content F is enlarged by some
+ identifier A (that was not previously in that set, i.e.,
+ !(A in H1(F)) && (A in H2(F))), denoted as
+
+ E3(F, A).
+
+ For example, this event may occur when a new content created at
+ folder F processes its "insert" command, or when a folder representing
+ an IMAP mailbox gets informed by the IMAP server that a new message has
+ arrived at that mailbox.
+
+ Finally, the list of reactions taken by contents in response to the above
+ events gives a description of what kinds of ContentEvents are sent in which
+ situations:
+
+ R1 E1(C: A->B) results in C sending an EXCHANGED ContentEvent,
+ which then results in the following: All folders F that used to have A
+ as a child, but will not have B as a child, i.e.,
+
+ (A in H1(F)) && !(B in H2(F)),
+
+ send a REMOVED ContentEvent.
+
+ R2 E2(C) results in C sending a DELETED ContentEvent,
+ which then results in the following: All folders F that used to have A
+ as a child, but will not continue to have A as a child, i.e.,
+
+ (A in H1(F)) && !(A in H2(F)),
+
+ send a REMOVED event.
+
+ R3 E3(F, A) results in F sending an INSERTED event.
