/**
 * This class defines the interface to the admin GUI application. It represents the central point from which the major
 * GUI pieces of the admin GUI application and other information can be obtained.
 * <P>
 * A class implementing this interface can be used to run or control the admin application. For the admin console
 * application, this controller can do things like:
 *
 * <UL>
 * <LI>show some status text in the status pane
 * <LI>show some object as being selected in the select pane
 * <LI>tell the canvas to select or deselect something
 * <LI>disable/enable some buttons in the control panel
 * </UL>
 *
 * Currently, the admin console is a main application. This is done via the AdminConsole class which extends AdminApp.
 * <P>
 * Later, if we decide to create an applet version of the console, we would create an applet class also extend AdminApp.
