/**
* An abstract representation of a report elements container.
*
* A frame is a report element that contains sub elements.
* It has a backgroud, a border and it stretches to accommodate its content.
*
* For the Graphics2D and PDF exporters, a frame is equivalent to a rectangle
* placed behind a group of elements. The HTML exporter creates sub-tables for frames
* and the XLS exporter includes the frame sub elements into the grid.
*
* For elements inside a frame, the coordinates, positionType and stretchType
* properties are relative to the frame instead of the band.
