/**
 * A block is a collection of static text and elements, and components, derived from a component template. In the
 * template, a block is demarcated using the <t:block> or <t:parameter> elements. The interface defines no
 * methods, but the provided implementations of Block are capable of rendering their contents on demand.
 *
 * Tapestry includes coercions from String to {@link org.apache.tapestry5.Renderable} and {@link
 * org.apache.tapestry5.Renderable} to Block. This means that components that take Block parameters may be bound to
 * literal strings, to arbitrary numbers (or other objects, with the expectation that they will be converted to
 * strings), or to renderable objects such as components.
