028/**
029 * A component that displays the properties of a bean (or POJO, or any object with properties) as a
030 * simple HTML <em>definition</em> list. Uses a {@link BeanModel} (either explicitly provided, or generated by Tapestry).
031 * <p>
032 * The output is a &lt;dl&gt; element containing a series of &lt;dt&gt; - &lt;dd&gt; pairs, where the &lt;dt&gt; contains
033 * the property's label and the &lt;dd&gt; contains the  property's value (formatted as per its datatype). Only properties that have a known data type
034 * are displayed.
035 * <p>
036 * The property id is used as the class attribute of the &lt;dt&gt; and &lt;dd&gt; element (allowing CSS customization
037 * per property), unless the lean parameter is true.
038 * <p>
039 * The outer &lt;dl&gt; element has the CSS class "well dl-horizontal" (Tapestry 5.4 and later) or "t-beandisplay" (Tapestry 5.3.x and earlier).
