/**
 * A mapping from client-side zone ids to objects that can render the content for that zone on the client. An
 * event handler method may instantiate an instance and chain together a series of calls to {@link #add(String, Object)}
 * , and return the final result.
 * 
 * Remember that client-side element ids may not match server-side component ids, especially once Ajax is added to the
 * mix. Because of this, it is highly recommended that the client-side logic gather the actual component ids and include
 * those in the Ajax request, to ensure that the server generates updates that the client can process. Better yet, use
 * the Zone's id parameter to lock down the zone's id to a known, predictable value.
