+<p>The basic concept of the signal system is that of the emission
+of a signal. Signals are introduced per-type and are identified
+through strings. Signals introduced for a parent type are available
+in derived types as well, so basically they are a per-type facility
+that is inherited.</p>
+<p>A signal emission mainly involves invocation of a certain set of
+callbacks in precisely defined manner. There are two main categories
+of such callbacks, per-object ones and user provided ones.
+(Although signals can deal with any kind of instantiatable type, I'm
+referring to those types as "object types" in the following, simply
+because that is the context most users will encounter signals in.)
+The per-object callbacks are most often referred to as "object method
+handler" or "default (signal) handler", while user provided callbacks are
+usually just called "signal handler".</p>
+<p>The object method handler is provided at signal creation time (this most
+frequently happens at the end of an object class' creation), while user
+provided handlers are frequently connected and disconnected to/from a
+certain signal on certain object instances.</p>
+<p>A signal emission consists of five stages, unless prematurely stopped:</p>
