/*
* UI handles the user interface of Eruta.
* 
* There is only one top-level widget, however, every widget can contain
* any amout of child widgets. BBWidgets that are children of the same parent
* widget are said to be on the same level.
*
*
* The box model used in eruta is as follows:
*  ......................................
*  .margin                              .
*  .  +-------------border-----------+  .
*  .  | padding                      |  .
*  .  |  ..........................  |  .
*  .  |  .                        .  |  .
*  .  |  . contents               .  |  .
*  .  |  .                        .  |  .
*  .  |  ..........................  |  .
*  .  | padding                      |  .
*  .  +------------------------------+  .
*  .margin                              .
*  ......................................
*
* The padding determines the minimal distance between the border or the
* parent widget and it's contents and/or child widgets.
*
* The border's thickness is only relevant for visual effects. It does not change
* the layout. The border is effectively "inside" the padding of the widget.
*
* The margin of a widget determines how closely that widget may be packed
* to it's sibling widgets.
*
* The work in UI is divided between the UI and the BBWidget. The UI struct
* handles everything that depends on and/or may influence several widgets at
* once, such as event dispatching but also setting the focus, determining which
* widget is being hovered, or dragged, etc. The latter fuctions change the state
* of several widgets, so they are handled on the level of the system.
* The BBWidget class and it's child classes handle the individual state and
* actions of the various widgets individually.
