This module provides a series of useful decorators for defining
various types of properties. For example usage, consider the
unittests at the end of the module.
See
http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0318/
and
http://www.phyast.pitt.edu/~micheles/python/documentation.html
for more information on decorators.

initVal, the first fget call triggers the generator function,
whiose output is stored in _<name>_cached_value. That and
subsequent calls to fget will return this cached value.
If the input value is no longer initVal (e.g. a value has been
loaded from disk or set with fset), that value overrides any
cached value, and this property has no effect.
When the cache flag is False and the stored value is initVal, the
generator is not cached, but is called on every fget.

may override by setting their own flag.
