a view of the tree as a hierarchy of properties and subproperties.
<p>This view is meaningful only for a static fragment of the hierarchy
Object's properties may change, but not which properties they have.
Therefore, dynamic elements of the hierarchy (see SetAccess)
do not implement service PropertyHierarchy.
</p>
<p>If such elements occur as properties or subproperties of an implementation,
it is not specified whether direct subproperty access using
com::sun::star::beans::XHierarchicalPropertySet or
com::sun::star::beans::XMultiHierarchicalPropertySet can
be used to access descendants of such elements.
</p>
<p>Similarly, information about such descendants may not be available from
the com::sun::star::beans::XHierarchicalPropertySetInfo
the implementation provides.
</p>
<p>If an implementation is part of a <em>read-only</em> view of the hierarchy,
all properties and subproperties will be reported as having attribute
com::sun::star::beans::PropertyAttribute::READONLY set,
and attempts to change property values will fail.
