/** HTML Composite Element.
 * This class is can be used a either an abstract or concrete

 * Used directly, it allow multiple HTML Elements to be added which
 * are produced sequentially.
 * Derived used of Composite may wrap each contain Element in
 * special purpose HTML tags (e.g. list).

 * 
Notes

 * Elements are added to the Composite either as HTML Elements or as
 * Strings.  Other objects added to the Composite are converted to Strings
