/** @file wiringrequest.hpp

** Symbolic representation of a goal for node wiring.
|
|
** A WiringRequest is discovered while walking the Session model, and will be resolved
|
|
** later, when the target for the desired connection is available. When all wiring requests
|
|
** are resolved, the build process finishes. Thus, creating and resolving of such requests
|
|
** is the "fuel" actually to drive the Builder.
|
|
** @todo stalled design draft from 2008 -- basically still considered relevant as of 2016
