// = TITLE
// The strategy to handle filtering close to the supplier.
//
// = DESCRIPTION
// After an event is received by the a ProxyPushConsumer it must
// be dispatched to the right set of ProxyPushSuppliers;
// determining this set is the task of this class.
// Notice that this is an implicit form of filtering, because the
// ProxyPushSuppliers outside the set will *not* receive the
// event.
//
// Several implementations are possible:
//
// - Each ProxyPushConsumer keeps a list of ProxyPushSuppliers,
// using the subscriptions and publications to find potential
// matches.
// - Each ProxyPushConsumer keeps several such lists, indexed by
// event type and/or source, this has the advantage of further
// minimizing the set of ProxyPushSuppliers invoked.
// - A single list of consumers is kept (global for the event
// channel), such a list results is faster updates and requires
// an smaller memory footprint.
// - Multiple global lists are kept, indexed by type and/or
// source, this is a tradeoff between the solutions above.
// - No list is kept, the events are sent to the consumers which
// must filter out what they want, this is good when no
// filtering is wanted or when the amount of filtering is coarse
// i.e. each event goes to a large subset of the
// ProxyPushSuppliers.
//
// Different applications will require to use different
// implementations of this class; as usual the EC_Factory will
// create the right instance.
