/**
 * @namespace Central registry and logic for all collections.
 *
 * The collection manager is a singleton that has the following tasks:
 * - Let views of objects (nouns) know when their objects have changed.  For
 *   example, an attribute has changed due to user action.
 * - Let views of objects based on queries know when new objects match their
 *   query, or when their existing objects no longer match due to changes.
 * - Caching/object-identity maintenance.  It is ideal if we only ever have
 *   one instance of an object at a time.  (More specifically, only one instance
 *   per database row 'id'.)  The collection mechanism lets us find existing
 *   instances to this end.  Caching can be directly integrated by being treated
 *   as a special collection.
