/**
 * This AspectAdapter provides basic PropertyChange support.
 * This allows us to convert a set of one or more properties into
 * a single property, VALUE.
 * 
 * The typical subclass will override the following methods:
 * #getValueFromSubject()
 *     at the very minimum, override this method to return the value of the
 *     subject's property (or "virtual" property); it does not need to be
 *     overridden if #buildValue() is overridden and its behavior changed
 * #setValueOnSubject(Object)
 *     override this method if the client code needs to *set* the value of
 *     the subject's property; oftentimes, though, the client code (e.g. UI)
 *     will need only to *get* the value; it does not need to be
 *     overridden if #setValue(Object) is overridden and its behavior changed
 * #buildValue()
 *     override this method only if returning a null value when the subject is null
 *     is unacceptable
 * #setValue(Object)
 *     override this method only if something must be done when the subject
 *     is null (e.g. throw an exception)
