/**
 * <p>
 * {@link ActivityQuery} is the user API to query {@link Activity Activities} in Strolch. The {@link Navigation} is used
 * to navigate to a type of activity on which any further {@link Selection Selections} will be performed. The
 * {@link ActivityVisitor} is used to transform the returned object into a domain specific object (if required). This
 * mechanism allows you to query e.g. a specific {@link Action} instead of having to return all the elements and then
 * performing this transformation.
 * </p>
 * 
 * <p>
 * The {@link ActivityVisitor} is intended for situations where the query result should not be {@link Activity} but some
 * other object type. For instance in a restful API, the result might have to be mapped to a POJO, thus using this
 * method can perform the mapping step for you
 * </p>
 * 
 * @param <U>
 *            defines the return type of this query. Depending on the user {@link ActivityVisitor} this query can return
 *            an {@link Activity}, or any type of object to which the visitor mapped the activity
