class ElementBase(object):

    """
    The core of SleekXMPP's stanza XML manipulation and handling is provided
    by ElementBase. ElementBase wraps XML cElementTree objects and enables
    access to the XML contents through dictionary syntax, similar in style
    to the Ruby XMPP library Blather's stanza implementation.

    Stanzas are defined by their name, namespace, and interfaces. For
    example, a simplistic Message stanza could be defined as::

        >>> class Message(ElementBase):
        ...     name = "message"
        ...     namespace = "jabber:client"
        ...     interfaces = set(('to', 'from', 'type', 'body'))
        ...     sub_interfaces = set(('body',))

    The resulting Message stanza's contents may be accessed as so::

        >>> message['to'] = "user@example.com"
        >>> message['body'] = "Hi!"
        >>> message['body']
        "Hi!"
        >>> del message['body']
        >>> message['body']
        ""

    The interface values map to either custom access methods, stanza
    XML attributes, or (if the interface is also in sub_interfaces) the
    text contents of a stanza's subelement.

    Custom access methods may be created by adding methods of the
    form "getInterface", "setInterface", or "delInterface", where
    "Interface" is the titlecase version of the interface name.

    Stanzas may be extended through the use of plugins. A plugin
    is simply a stanza that has a plugin_attrib value. For example::

        >>> class MessagePlugin(ElementBase):
        ...     name = "custom_plugin"
        ...     namespace = "custom"
        ...     interfaces = set(('useful_thing', 'custom'))
        ...     plugin_attrib = "custom"

    The plugin stanza class must be associated with its intended
    container stanza by using register_stanza_plugin as so::

        >>> register_stanza_plugin(Message, MessagePlugin)

    The plugin may then be accessed as if it were built-in to the parent
    stanza::

        >>> message['custom']['useful_thing'] = 'foo'

    If a plugin provides an interface that is the same as the plugin's
    plugin_attrib value, then the plugin's interface may be assigned
    directly from the parent stanza, as shown below, but retrieving
    information will require all interfaces to be used, as so::

        >>> # Same as using message['custom']['custom']
        >>> message['custom'] = 'bar'
        >>> # Must use all interfaces
        >>> message['custom']['custom']
        'bar'

    If the plugin sets :attr:`is_extension` to ``True``, then both setting
    and getting an interface value that is the same as the plugin's
    plugin_attrib value will work, as so::

        >>> message['custom'] = 'bar'  # Using is_extension=True
        >>> message['custom']
        'bar'


    :param xml: Initialize the stanza object with an existing XML object.
    :param parent: Optionally specify a parent stanza object will
                   contain this substanza.
