/**
 * An ignored layout is a layout that should not be treated as a layout by the
 * visual editor (usually because the widget extends a layout class we recognize
 * and support, but where the widget is more restrictive in how it manages its
 * children so we don't want to expose the normal configuration options).
 * <p>
 * For example, the ZoomControls widget is not user-configurable as a
 * LinearLayout even though it extends it. Our ZoomControls rule is therefore a
 * subclass of this {@link IgnoredLayoutRule} class.
