/**
 * A PropertyModel is used to dynamically access a model using a "property expression". See
 * {@link PropertyResolver} javadoc for allowed property expressions.
 * <p>
 * For example, take the following bean:
 * 
 * <pre>
 * public class Person
 * {
 * 	private String name;
 * 
 * 	public String getName()
 * 	{
 * 		return name;
 * 	}
 * 
 * 	public void setName(String name)
 * 	{
 * 		this.name = name;
 * 	}
 * }
 * </pre>
 * 
 * We could construct a label that dynamically fetches the name property of the given person object
 * like this:
 * 
 * <pre>
 *     Person person = getSomePerson();
 *     ...
 *     add(new Label(&quot;myLabel&quot;, new PopertyModel(person, &quot;name&quot;));
 * </pre>
 * 
 * Where 'myLabel' is the name of the component, and 'name' is the property expression to get the
 * name property.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * In the same fashion, we can create form components that work dynamically on the given model
 * object. For instance, we could create a text field that updates the name property of a person
 * like this:
 * 
 * <pre>
 *     add(new TextField(&quot;myTextField&quot;, new PropertyModel(person, &quot;name&quot;));
 * </pre>
 * 
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Note that the property resolver by default provides access to private members and methods. If
 * guaranteeing encapsulation of the target objects is a big concern, you should consider using an
 * alternative implementation.
 * </p>
