 *  \brief A widget that renders an XHTML template.
 *
 * The XHTML template may contain references to variables which
 * replaced by strings are widgets.
 *
 * Since the template text may be supplied by a WString, you can
 * conveniently store the string in a message resource bundle, and
 * make it localized by using WString::tr().
 *
 * Placeholders (for variables and functions) are delimited by:
 * <tt>${...}</tt>. To use a literal <tt>"${"</tt>, use
 * <tt>"$${"</tt>.
 * Place holder names can contain '_', '-', '.' and alfanumeric characters.
 *
 * Usage example:
 * \if cpp
 * \code
 * WString userName = ...;
 *
 * auto t = std::make_unique<WTemplate>();
 * t->setTemplateText("<div> How old are you, ${friend} ? ${age-input} </div>");
 *
 * t->bindString("friend", userName, TextFormat::Plain);
 * ageEdit_ = t->bindWidget("age-input", std::make_unique<WLineEdit>());
 * \endcode
 * \elseif java
 * \code
 * WString userName = ...;
 *
 * WTemplate t = new WTemplate();
 * t.setTemplateText("<div> How old are you, ${friend} ? ${age-input} </div>");
 *
 * t.bindString("friend", userName, TextFormat::Plain);
 * t.bindWidget("age-input", ageEdit_ = new WLineEdit());
 * \endcode
 * \endif
 *
 * There are currently three syntactic constructs defined: variable
 * place holders, functions and conditional blocks.
 *
 * <h3>A. Variable placeholders</h3>
 *
 * <tt>${var}</tt> defines a placeholder for the variable "var", and
 * gets replaced with whatever is bound to that variable:
 * - a widget, using bindWidget()
 * - a string value, using bindString() or bindInt()
 * - or in general, the result of resolveString() and resolveWidget()
 *   methods.
 *
 * Optionally, additional arguments can be specified using the following
 * syntax:
 *
 * <tt>${var arg1="A value" arg2='A second value'}</tt>
 *
 * The arguments can thus be simple strings or quoted strings
 * (single or double quoted). These arguments are applied to a
 * resolved widget in applyArguments() and currently supports only
 * style classes.
 *
 * You can bind widgets and values to variables using bindWidget(),
 * bindString() or bindInt() or by reimplementing the resolveString()
 * and resolveWidget() methods.
 *
 * \note The use of XML comments (<tt>&lt;!\-- ... \--&gt;</tt>)
 *       around variables that are bound to widgets will result in bad
 *       behaviour since the template parser is ignorant about these
 *       comments and the corresponding widgets will believe that they
 *       are rendered but aren't actually.
 *
 * <h3>B. %Functions</h3>
 *
 * <tt>${fun:arg}</tt> defines a placeholder for applying a function
 * "fun" to an argument "arg".
 *
 * Optionally, additional arguments can be specified as with a
 * variable placeholder.
 *
 * Functions are resolved by resolveFunction(), and the default implementation
 * considers functions bound with addFunction().
 * There are currently three functions that are generally useful:
 * - \link Functions::tr\endlink : resolves a localized strings, this is
 *   convenient to create a language neutral template, which contains
 *   translated strings
 * - \link Functions::id\endlink : resolves the id of a bound widget, this
 *   is convenient to bind &lt;label&gt; elements to a form widget using its
 *   for attribute.
 * - \link Functions::block\endlink : recursively renders another string as
 *   macro block optional arguments substituted before processing template
 *   substitution.
 *
 * For example, the following template uses the "tr" function to translate
 * the age-label using the "age-label" internationalized key.
 *
 * \if cpp
 * \code
 * auto t = std::make_unique<WTemplate>();
 * t->addFunction("tr", &WTemplate::Functions::tr);
 * t->setTemplateText("<div> ${tr:age-label} ${age-input} </div>");
 * ageEdit_ = t->bindWidget("age-input", std::make_unique<WLineEdit>());
 * \endcode
 * \elseif java
 * \code
 * WTemplate t = new WTemplate();
 * t.setTemplateText("<div> ${tr:age-label} ${age-input} </div>");
 * t.addFunction("tr", WTemplate.Functions.tr);
 * t.bindWidget("age-input", ageEdit = new WLineEdit());
 * \endcode
 * \endif
 *
 * <h3>C. Conditional blocks</h3>
 *
 * <tt>${&lt;cond&gt;}</tt> starts a conditional block with a condition name
 * "cond", and must be closed by a balanced <tt>${&lt;/cond&gt;}</tt>.
 *
 * For example:
 * \if cpp
 * \code
 * auto t = std::make_unique<WTemplate>();
 * t->setTemplateText("<div> ${<if-register>} Register ... ${</if-register>}</div>");
 * t->setCondition("if-register", true);
 * \endcode
 * \elseif java
 * \code
 * WTemplate t = new WTemplate();
 * t.setTemplateText("<div> ${<if-register>} Register ... ${</if-register>}</div>");
 * t.setCondition("if-register", true);
 * \endcode
 * \endif
 *
 * Conditions are set using setCondition().
 *
 * \if cpp
 * The template can return a bound widget using resolve(), which already
 * tries to cast the widget to the proper type.
 * \endif
 *
 * <h3>CSS</h3>
 *
 * This widget does not provide styling,
 * and can be styled using inline or external CSS as appropriate.
