/** Represents a widget style property.
 *
 * This class maps one to one to a style property of a widget in Gtk. A style
 * property is similar to object properties (Glib::Property), but its value is
 * stored in the style object associated with the widget. The style property,
 * similarly to the object properties, has some global data for each property.
 * The global data includes the following information about the style property:
 *  * unique name, used to identify the style property
 *  * human-readable nickname
 *  * short description
 *  * default value, minimum and maximum bounds (applicable depending on the
 *      type of the style property)
 *  * flags, defining, among other things, whether the property can be read or
 *      written
 *
 * The StyleProperty class currently supports only the name and default value.
 * The minimum and maximum bounds are set to the full range of the value. The
 * nickname and the description are set to empty. The flags are set to indicate that
 * the property is read-only (this doesn't disallow a style provider to set the
 * value of the property).
 *
 * The global information must be installed into the widget once per property.
 * This is handled automatically. A reference to the widget must be passed on
 * the construction of the style property.
