/**
 * Represents a model group.

 * A model group is a syntactic construct, not a part of
 * the logical model. For example, types declared within a
 * model group become local to the type that uses the group -
 * they're not local to the model group itself. Therefore in
 * the logical model of a schema type system, a model group
 * doesn't represent anything. Its contents are merged into
 * the logical model at parse time.
