/**
 * Wraps any SimpleTag and exposes it using a Tag interface. This is used to
 * allow collaboration between classic Tag handlers and SimpleTag handlers.
 * 
 * Because SimpleTag does not extend Tag, and because Tag.setParent() only
 * accepts a Tag instance, a classic tag handler (one that implements Tag)
 * cannot have a SimpleTag as its parent. To remedy this, a TagAdapter is
 * created to wrap the SimpleTag parent, and the adapter is passed to
 * setParent() instead. A classic Tag Handler can call getAdaptee() to retrieve
 * the encapsulated SimpleTag instance.
