* A buffer contains the text contents of a resource. It is not language-specific.
* The contents may be in the process of being edited, differing from the actual contents of the
* underlying resource. A buffer has an owner, which is an IOpenable.
* If a buffer does not have an underlying resource, saving the buffer has no effect.
* Buffers can be read-only.
*
* Note that java model operations that manipulate an IBuffer (for example,
* IType.createMethod(...)) ensures that the same line delimiter
* (either "\n" or "\r" or "\r\n") is
* used across the whole buffer. Thus these operations may change the line delimiter(s)
* included in the string to be append, or replaced.
* However implementers of this interface should be aware that other clients of IBuffer
* might not do such transformations beforehand.
*
* This interface may be implemented by clients.
