/* InspectorInfo is a abstract subclass of Object that encapsulates
information related to a inspected object attribute. An example would
be the size of a View.
InspectorInfo objects are passed back and forth between an object being
inspected and the object's delegate. The intent of this arrangement was to
allow a single inspector panel and a manager type object that serves
as the inspected objects delegate to handle any number of inspected objects.
This arrangement does not require the inspected objects to know about the
inspector panel objects or the instance methods that update their state. */

a comma delimited string of value descriptions equivalent to the
Storage object description string semantics */
