/**
 *
 *  This file contains classes that will provide a decorator of sorts for each field component
 *  that will be added to the containerPanel. There will be two types of
 *  wrappers. (maybe?)  One will contain a label and a space for the field component.
 *  The other one will contain a space for a field component and a delete ("X") button.
 *  The latter is designed to wrap the field components contained within a vectorPanel.


 ****NOTE:  Add functionality to display a field comment string as part of a pop up dialog box
            The right mouse button will activate the dialog box.
