+	 * The ContainerController class defines the relationship between a TextFlow object and a container.
+	 * A TextFlow may have one or more rectangular areas that can hold text; the text is said to be flowing
+	 * through the containers. Each container is a Sprite that is the parent DisplayObject for the TextLines.
+	 * Each container has a ContainerController that manages the container; the controller holds the target 
+	 * width and height for the text area, populates the container with TextLines, and handles scrolling. A
+	 * controller also has a format associated with it that allows some formatting attributes to be applied 
+	 * to the text in the container. This allows, for instance, a TextFlow to have one container where the
+	 * text appears in a single column, and a second container in the same TextFlow with two column text. Not
+	 * all formatting attributes that can be applied to the container will affect the text; only the ones that
+	 * affect container-level layout. The diagram below illustrates the relationship between the TextFlow,
+	 * its flowComposer, and the display list.
