public interface OptionRegistrar
Implementors are capable of registering options and storing them in a repository. A parent object may pass its child a reference to an OptionRegistrar to preserve abstraction and restrict access to registration. This may be preferred so that children may only register their options without performing any administrating the repository.The Options and OptionModule classes implement this interface. It is not necessary to refer to instances as an OptionRegistrar.
