/**
 * Client is the main entry point to the fluent API used to build and execute client
 * requests in order to consume responses returned.
 * 

 * Clients are heavy-weight objects that manage the client-side communication
 * infrastructure. Initialization as well as disposal of a {@code Client} instance
 * may be a rather expensive operation. It is therefore advised to construct only
 * a small number of {@code Client} instances in the application. Client instances
 * must be {@link #close() properly closed} before being disposed to avoid leaking
 * resources.
