class ConfigNamespace(object):
    """Abstract class representing the interface of Config objects.

A ConfigNamespace is a collection of names mapped to values, where
    the values may be nested namespaces.  Values can be accessed via
    container notation - obj[key] - or via dotted notation - obj.key.
    Both these access methods are equivalent.

To minimize name conflicts between namespace keys and class members,
    the number of class members should be minimized, and the names of
    all class members should start with an underscore.

Subclasses must implement the methods for container-like access,
    and this class will automatically provide dotted access.

Values are added using dotted notation:

...and accessed the same way, or with [...]:

Iterating over the namespace object returns the keys:

>>> l = list(n)

Values can be deleted using 'del' and printed using 'print'.

>>> n.aaa = 42

    aaa = 42
    name.first = paramjit

    >>> print n.name

    last = oberoi
