* In FreeCAD normally inheritance is a chain, it is not possible to use multiple inheritance.
* The reason for this is that all objects need to be exposed to python, and it is basically
* impossible to handle multiple inheritance in the C-API for python extensions. Also using multiple
* parent classes in python is currently not possible with the default object approach.
*
* The concept of extensions allow to circumvent those problems. Extensions are FreeCAD objects
* which work like normal objects in the sense that they use properties and class methods to define
* their functionality. However, they are not exposed as individual usable entities but are used to
* extend other objects. A extended object gets all the properties and methods of the extension.

* - Property persistence is handled, save and restore work out of the box
* - The objects python API gets extended too with the extension python API
* - Extensions can be added from c++ and python, even from both together

* The interoperability with python is highly important, as in FreeCAD all functionality should be
* as easily accessible from python as from c++. To ensure this, and as already noted, extensions can
* be added to a object from python. However, this means that it is not clear from the c++ object type
* if an extension was added or not. If added from c++ it becomes clear in the type due to the use of
* multiple inheritance. If added from python it is a runtime extension and not visible from type.
* Hence querying existing extensions of an object and accessing its methods works not by type
* casting but by the interface provided in ExtensionContainer. The default workflow is to query if
* an extension exists and then get the extension object. No matter if added from python or c++ this
* interface works always the same.

* Extensions can provide methods that should be overridden by the extended object for customisation
