/**
 * Abstract model of one field in a generated class.

 * Responsible for "realizing" a Java property by actually generating
 * members(s) to store the property value and a set of methods
 * to manipulate them.
 * 
 * 

 * Objects that implement this interface also encapsulates the
 * internal access to the field.
 * 
 * 
 * For discussion of the model this interface is representing, see
 * the "field meta model" design document.
 * 
 * REVISIT:
 *  refactor this to two interfaces that provide
 *  (1) internal access and (2) external access.
