Field accessors
===============

Accessors are used to model methods used to access data defined by fields.
Accessors are fields that work by decorating existing fields.

To define accessors in an interface, use the accessors function::

  class IMyInterface(Interface):

     getFoo, setFoo = accessors(Text(title=u'Foo', ...))

     getBar = accessors(TextLine(title=u'Foo', readonly=True, ...)


Normally a read accessor and a write accessor are defined.  Only a
read accessor is defined for read-only fields.

Read accessors function as access method specifications and as field
specifications.  Write accessors are solely method specifications.

        # will be some sub-class of Attribute, just as we are
        # (FieldReadAccessor <- Method <- Attribute). So there will be
        # overlap, and commonly only IMethod would be added to the end
        # of the list of bases; but since IMethod extends IAttribute,
        # having IAttribute earlier in the bases will be inconsistent.
