// summary
// Provides Delphi-style panel layout semantics.
//
// details
// A LayoutContainer is a box with a specified size (like style="width: 500px; height: 500px;"),
// that contains children widgets marked with "layoutAlign" of "left", "right", "bottom", "top", and "client".
// It takes it's children marked as left/top/bottom/right, and lays them out along the edges of the box,
// and then it takes the child marked "client" and puts it into the remaining space in the middle.
//
// Left/right positioning is similar to CSS's "float: left" and "float: right",
// and top/bottom positioning would be similar to "float: top" and "float: bottom", if there were such
// CSS.
//
// Note that there can only be one client element, but there can be multiple left, right, top,
// or bottom elements.
//
// usage
// <style>
// html, body{ height: 100%; width: 100%; }
// </style>
// <div dojoType="LayoutContainer" style="width: 100%; height: 100%">
// <div dojoType="ContentPane" layoutAlign="top">header text</div>
// <div dojoType="ContentPane" layoutAlign="left" style="width: 200px;">table of contents</div>
// <div dojoType="ContentPane" layoutAlign="client">client area</div>
// </div>
isContainer: true,
// layoutChildPriority: String
// - If the value is "top-bottom", then LayoutContainer will first position the "top" and "bottom" aligned elements,
// to and then put the left and right aligned elements in the remaining space, between the top and the bottom elements.
// It aligns the client element at the very end, in the remaining space.
//
// - If the value is "left-right", then it first positions the "left" and "right" elements, and then puts the
// "top" and "bottom" elements in the remaining space, between the left and the right elements.
// It aligns the client element at the very end, in the remaining space.
//
// - If the value is "none", then it will lay out each child in the natural order the children occur in.
// Basically each child is laid out into the "remaining space", where "remaining space" is initially
// the content area of this widget, but is reduced to a smaller rectangle each time a child is added.
