 * - any metadata mapped from XML to this class must be compared in the
 *   equals method.
 * - any metadata mapped from XML to this class must be handled in the merge
 *   method. (merging is done at the accessor/mapping level)
 * - any metadata mapped from XML to this class must be initialized in the
 *   initXMLObject  method.
 * - methods should be preserved in alphabetical order.
