public interface DynamicListening

This interface is used by Components that need to register and unregister listeners whenever they are shown or hidden in order to improve performance and garbage collection. ObserverPalette is a good example where listeners are dynamically added and removed. Usually you don't call the interface methods directly but let DynamicAncestorAdapter do the work.
