/**
 * A <code>EnumControl</code> provides control over a set of
 * discrete possible values, each represented by an object.  In a
 * graphical user interface, such a control might be represented
 * by a set of buttons, each of which chooses one value or setting.  For
 * example, a reverb control might provide several preset reverberation
 * settings, instead of providing continuously adjustable parameters
 * of the sort that would be represented by <code>{@link FloatControl}</code>
 * objects.
 * <p>
 * Controls that provide a choice between only two settings can often be implemented
 * instead as a <code>{@link BooleanControl}</code>, and controls that provide
 * a set of values along some quantifiable dimension might be implemented
 * instead as a <code>FloatControl</code> with a coarse resolution.
 * However, a key feature of <code>EnumControl</code> is that the returned values
 * are arbitrary objects, rather than numerical or boolean values.  This means that each
 * returned object can provide further information.  As an example, the settings
 * of a <code>{@link EnumControl.Type#REVERB REVERB}</code> control are instances of
 * <code>{@link ReverbType}</code> that can be queried for the parameter values
 * used for each setting.
