/**
 * Document that supports atomic locking allows
 * for transactional modifications.
 * The document is write-locked during the whole atomic
 * operation. All the operations since
 * the begining of the atomic operation
 * can be undone by using atomicUndo().
 * Typical scenario of the operation
 * is the following:  *   doc.atomicLock();
 *   try {
 *     ...
 *     modification1
 *     modification2
 *     ...
 *   } catch (BadLocationException e) {
 *     // something went wrong - undo till begining
 *     doc.atomicUndo();
 *   } finally {
 *     doc.atomicUnlock();
 *   }
 *    *   The external clients can watch for atomic operations
 *   by registering an listener through
 *   {@link addAtomicLockListener(AtomicLockListener)}
