Unfortunately, you won't get very wise if you only look at the C++ 
class structure, since lots of the implementation is done in Scheme.

This whole thread is getting very confused, since some people talk
about implementation structure, whereas others talk about the 
context/layout object structure that the user sees when he wants
to set a property.
