+-- | Not exactly the FRP model, but rather a model of a large application with
+--   heterogenous data and many inputs and outputs.  An application is in its
+--   essence a collection of widgets and behaviours and events with a bus.
+--   The bus holds events and manages the event timeline.  Behaviours and
+--   widgets are continuous. Widgets applied to the bus make insertions and
+--   never deletions. Behaviours applied to the bus make insertions and deletions.
+--
+--   Behaviours are composable using combinators that set one Behaviour as either
+--   behind, in front, or beside another behaviour on the bus.  The in front and
+--   behind combinators  establish that the behaviour "behind" the others
+--   sees the results of the other behaviours' application to the bus. The beside
+--   combinator says that the combinators see the same bus.
