# A Dash is a 'defined' or 'discrete' Hash, that is, a Hash
# that has a set of defined keys that are accessible (with
# optional defaults) and only those keys may be set or read.
#
# Dashes are useful when you need to create a very simple
# lightweight data object that needs even fewer options and
# resources than something like a DataMapper resource.
#
# It is preferrable to a Struct because of the in-class
# API for defining properties as well as per-property defaults.

# to be returned before a value is set on the property in a new
# Dash.
