 * Abstract base class for specifying option properties.
 *
 * Concrete classes should normally not derive directly from this class,
 * but from OptionTemplate instead.  Classes derived from this class
 * are mainly designed to implement the "named parameter" idiom.  For
 * efficiency and clarity, these classes should only store values provided to
 * them.  All error checking and memory management should be postponed to the
 * point when the actual option is created.
 *
 * Subclasses should override createStorage() to create the correct type
 * of storage object.  If they use their own info type derived from OptionInfo,
 * they should also have a public typedef \c InfoType that specifies that
 * info type.  This is required for Options::addOption() to return the correct
 * info type.
