/**
 * To be implemented by any user agent using the panel. "User agent" is a
 * term defined by the W3C in the documentation for XHTML and CSS; in most
 * cases, you can think of this as the rendering component for a browser.
 * 
 *
 * 
This interface defines a simple callback mechanism for Flying Saucer to
 * interact with a user agent. The FS toolkit provides a default implementation
 * for this interface which in most cases you can leave as is. You can provide your
 * own UserAgentCallback when constructing an {@link org.docx4j.org.xhtmlrenderer.simple.XHTMLPanel}
 * or {@link org.docx4j.org.xhtmlrenderer.swing.BasicPanel}.
 *
 * The user agent in this case is responsible for retrieving external resources. For
 * privacy reasons, if using the library in an application that can access URIs
 * in an unrestricted fashion, you may decide to restrict access to XML, CSS or images
 * retrieved from external sources; that's one of the purposes of the UAC.
 *
 * To understand how to create your own UAC, it's best to look at some of the
 * implemetations shipped with the library, like the {@link org.docx4j.org.xhtmlrenderer.swing.NaiveUserAgent}.
