  This is parsed into a tree of Node objects by an implementation of AbstractNodeFactory. The Node objects can then later be rendered by their render method.

  Rendering a Node will usually mean writing some output to the stream. The content written to the stream could be determined by the arguments to the tag, or by the content of child nodes between a start and end tag, or both.

/**
  @brief Base class for all NodeFactories

  This class can be used to make custom tags available to templates.
  The getNode method should be implemented to return a Node to be rendered.

  A node is represented in template markup as content surrounded by percent signed tokens.

  @code
    text content
    {% some_tag arg1 arg2 %}
      text content
    {% some_other_tag arg1 arg2 %}
      text content
    {% end_some_other_tag %}
    text content
  @endcode

  It is the responsibility of an AbstractNodeFactory implementation to process the contents of a tag and return a Node implementation from its getNode method.

  The @ref getNode method would for example be called with the tagContent "some_tag arg1 arg2". That content could then be split up, the arguments processed and a Node created

  @code
    Node* SomeTagFactory::getNode(const QString &tagContent, Parser *p) {
      QStringList parts = smartSplit( tagContent );

      parts.removeFirst(); // Remove the "some_tag" part.

      FilterExpression arg1( parts.first(), p );
      FilterExpression arg2( parts.at( 1 ), p );

      return new SomeTagNode( arg1, arg2, p );
    }
  @endcode

  The @ref getNode implementation might also advance the parser. For example if we had a @gr_tag{times} tag which rendered content the amount of times it was given in its argument, it could be used like this:

  @code
    Some text content.
    {% times 5 %}
      the bit to be repeated
    {% end_times %}
    End text content
  @endcode

  The argument to @gr_tag{times} might not be a simple number, but could be a FilterExpression such as <tt>someobject.some_property|getDigit:1</tt>.

  The implementation could look like

  @code
    Node* SomeOtherTagFactory::getNode(const QString &tagContent, Parser *p) {
      QStringList parts = smartSplit( tagContent );

      parts.removeFirst(); // Remove the "times" part.

      FilterExpression arg( parts.first(), p );

      SomeTagNode *node = new SomeTagNode( arg, p );
      NodeList childNodes = p->parse( node, "end_times" );
      node->setChildNodes( childNodes );
      p->removeNextToken();

      return node;
    }
  @endcode

  Note that it is necessary to invoke the parser to create the child nodes only after creating the Node to return. That node must be passed to the Parser to perform as the parent QObject to the child nodes.
