+    /* //TODO JavaDoc
+       When implementing a js custom column handler (of type nsITreeView) you must implement the following
+       functions:
+       1. isEditable
+       2. GetCellProperties
+       3. GetImageSrc
+       4. GetCellText
+       5. CycleCell
+       6. GetSortStringForRow
+       7. GetSortLongForRow
+       8. isString
+
+       You can, at your option, implement
+       9.  GetRowProperties.
+
+       With Bug 1192696, Grouped By Sort was implemented for custom columns.
+       Implementers should consider that the value returned by GetSortStringForRow
+       will be displayed in the grouped header row, as well as be used as the
+       sort string.
+
+      If implementing a c++ custom column handler, you must define all
+      nsITreeView and nsIMsgCustomColumnHandler methods.
