 1) The Model: \c Buffer

 The Buffer is the in-memory representation of a LyX file format. The
 Buffer does not (should not) have any information on what part of it
 is represented on screen. There is one unique Buffer per opened LyX
 file. A Buffer may or may not be represented on screen; typically, a
 child document does not have an associated BufferView unless the user
 choose to visualize it.


 2) The Controller: \c BufferView / \c Painter \c Cursor

 The BufferView is a tool used by the view (\sa WorkArea) that
 translates a part of the Buffer contents into drawing routines. The
 BufferView asks each inset of the Buffer to draw itself onto the
 screen using the Painter. There can be only one Buffer displayed in
 a BufferView and it is set on construction. Ideally, a BufferView
 should not be able to change the contents of its associated Buffer.
 A BufferView is instanciated and destroyed by a \c WorkArea; it is
 automatically destroyed by the parent WorkArea when its Buffer is
 closed.

 \todo Move all Buffer changing LFUN to Buffer::dispatch(),
 LyXFunc::dispatch() or Cursor::dispatch().
 \todo BufferView::buffer() should only offer const access.

 The \c Painter is just a virtual interface to formalize each kind of
 drawing routines (text, line, rectangle, etc).

 The \c BufferView also contains a Cursor which may or may not be
 visible on screen. The cursor is really just a bookmark to remember
 where the next Buffer insertion/deletion is going to take place.


 3) The View: \c WorkArea (and it's qt4 specialisation GuiWorkArea)

 This contains the real screen area where the drawing is done by the
 Painter. One WorkArea holds one unique \c BufferView. While it could
 be possible that multiple WorkArea share one BufferView, this is not
 something desirable because a BufferView is dependent of the WorkArea
 size.
 The WorkArea also provide a scrollbar which position is translated
 into scrolling command to the inner \c BufferView.

 The WorkArea use the BufferView to translate each keyboard or mouse
 events into terms that the Buffer can understand:
 - insert/delete char
 - select char
 - etc.


 4) The Window: \c GuiView

 This is a full window containing a menubar, toolbars and a central
 widget. A GuiView is in charge of creating and closing a View for a
 given Buffer.
 In the qt4 specialisation, \c GuiView, the central widget is a tab
 widget. Each tab is reverved to the visualisation of one Buffer and
 contains one WorkArea. In the qt4 frontend, one GuiView thus contains
 multiple WorkAreas but this number can limited to one for another
 frontend. The idea is that the kernel should not know how a Buffer
 is displayed on screen; it's the frontend business.
 It is also possible to have multiple Workareas showing
 simultaneously in the same GuiView (ex: with split window), thus
 sharing the menubar and toolbars.

 In any case, there should be only one WorkArea that gets the focus
 at a time.

 With our current implementation using a QTabWidget, each Tab own its
 own \c WorkArea. Clicking on a tab switch a WorkArea and not really
 a Buffer. LFUN_BUFFER_SWITCH will tell the frontend to search the
 WorkArea associated to this Buffer. The WorkArea is automatically
 created if not already present.

 A WorkArea is connected to the Buffer::closing signal and is thus
 automatically destroyed when its Buffer is closed.
