A Message that can render itself in more than one way. The format string is used by the
Message implementation as extra information that it may use to help it to determine how
to format itself. For example, MapMessage accepts a format of "XML" to tell it to render
the Map as XML instead of its default format of {key1="value1" key2="value2"}.
