Detailed Description

A SpacerContainer is a specialized widget for creating artifical
spacing between other widgets "inside" it. These spaces consist of Spacer
objects, which are usually drawn blank to give the same effect as margins.
Items and spacers occur in a linear arrangement, but the direction is unspecified.
The items and spacers are intended to be linked together using an AnchoredLayout,
as part of a two level layout process. The first level is called 'linking',
in which we actually reassign new AnchoredLayout properties to objects that
are defined to be beside each other. The second level is for the layout mechanism
to perform the acutal layout, with items being children of the SpacerContainer's 
parent object and Spacers being children of the SpacerContainer itself. 
Spacer objects can be used as targets for drag and drop operations.
This code is a generalization of repeated code used in qtview.
