/** @file session-service-explore-scope.hpp
 ** Implementation level session API: query a scope.
 ** This specialised service is intended to be used by the Scope and
 ** QueryFocus framework for enumerating objects contained within a
 ** given scope and for locating the scope's parent scope. Basically,
 ** this service just exposes a QueryResolver, which is actually
 ** backed by the PlacementIndex and is able to handle queries of
 ** type ScopeQuery, especially ContentsQuery and PathQuery.
 ** 
 ** By virtue of this service, QueryFocus, Scope and Placement can
 ** remain completely agnostic of session's implementation details,
 ** especially they aren't bound to PlacementIndex. This is important,
 ** because the public session API is casted in terms of PlacementRef
 ** and QueryFocus. An implementation of this service is available
 ** through the SessionServices access mechanism.
 ** 
 ** @see session-impl.hpp implementation of the service
 ** @see session-services.cpp implementation of access
