/**
 The main class used to get an KMultiFormListBox widget.

 The KMultiFormListBox widget consist of a sub-widget which is repeated a
 number of times, it is up to the end user to determine the number of times
 the sub widget is repeated, and he may require an additional copy simply
 by pressing a ``Add'' or ``More Entries'' button.  The KMultiFormListBox
 widget has two different faces (i.e. two different end user
 interfaces). One (Windowed) will show a listbox from which the end user
 can access each subwidget containing data by pressing the LMB on a name
 for the element. The other face (MultiVisible) shows all the subwidgets in
 one huge ``Listbox''.

 To use the KMultiFormListBox widget you must create a class which is inherited
 from the @ref KMultiFormListBoxFactory class. This new class must override the
 function `create'. This function must return a freshly made instance of
 the class @ref KMultiFormListBoxEntry (or a subclass of this). The KMultiFormListBoxEntry
 instance is the one inserted into the KMultiFormListBox widget (one instance for
 each sub widget in the KMultiFormListBox widget).
