/**
 * 
 * A specialized node implementation to be used in view configurations.
 * 
 * 
 * Some configurations provide a logical view on the nodes of other
 * configurations. These configurations construct their own hierarchy of nodes
 * based on the node trees of their source configurations. This special node
 * class can be used for this purpose. It allows child nodes and attributes to
 * be added without changing their parent node. So a node can belong to a
 * hierarchy of nodes of a source configuration, but be also contained in a view
 * configuration.
