/**
* Persistent collections are treated as value objects by Hibernate.
* ie. they have no independent existence beyond the object holding
* a reference to them. Unlike instances of entity classes, they are
* automatically deleted when unreferenced and automatically become
* persistent when held by a persistent object. Collections can be
* passed between different objects (change "roles") and this might
* cause their elements to move from one database table to another.
*
* Hibernate "wraps" a java collection in an instance of
* PersistentCollection. This mechanism is designed to support
* tracking of changes to the collection's persistent state and
* lazy instantiation of collection elements. The downside is that
* only certain abstract collection types are supported and any
* extra semantics are lost
*
* Applications should never use classes in this package
* directly, unless extending the "framework" here.
*
* Changes to structure of the collection are recorded by the
* collection calling back to the session. Changes to mutable
* elements (ie. composite elements) are discovered by cloning their
* state when the collection is initialized and comparing at flush
* time.
