/** @file instancehandle.hpp
** A handle template for automatically dealing with interface and plugin
** registration and deregistration. By placing an instance of this template,
** parametrised with the appropriate interface type, the respective interface
** and instance is loaded and opened through the Lumiera Interface system.
** It will be closed and unregistered automatically when the handle goes
** out of scope. Additionally, access via an (existing) interface proxy
** may be enabled and disabled alongside with the loading and unloading.
**
** @see gui::GuiFacade usage example
** @see interface.h
