/**
 * Wizard step that is intelligent enough to know how to navigate to the next and previous steps.
 * Using such steps, you can build wizard that consists of steps that are linked on the fly rather
 * than in a static, pre-determined fashion. The basic idea here is that the wizard step takes over
 * much of what otherwise would be done by the wizard model. You trade simplicity for flexibility.
 * 
 * 
 * Warning: only use these steps with the {@link DynamicWizardModel}.
