/*Note:  Don't be intimidated by the size of this file.  It is so big because is has copious amounts of comments
	You should read GeneralRef/19_WorkspaceManager/Classes/WMInspector.rtf before trying to understand this code.  It's really simple, though:  The workspace manager simply calls the ok: method whenever the user presses the ok ('Unarchive') button and calls revert:  whenever the revert ('List Contents') button is pressed -OR- the workspace manager wants the inspector to update its display.  The new method is called the first time TARInspector is used during a login session.*/
