Fwd: AOO Design Patterns

If no one knows the answer to this question, that's OK.
I just wanted to add a descriptive comment to the code.

Dev List,

I was browsing through the code on Fisheye, and I noticed some interesting
design patterns that were in use.
For example, errobject.hxx has a public factory method to make new
ErrObjects, but the constructors are not marked as public.
What was the motivation behind this design decision?
