     * <p>
     * An augmentable class, which provides the augmented class with the ability to host plugins.
     * It adds <a href="#method_plug">plug</a> and <a href="#method_unplug">unplug</a> methods to the augmented class, which can 
     * be used to add or remove plugins from instances of the class.
     * </p>
     *
     * <p>Plugins can also be added through the constructor configuration object passed to the host class' constructor using
     * the "plugins" property. Supported values for the "plugins" property are those defined by the <a href="#method_plug">plug</a> method. 
     * 
     * For example the following code would add the AnimPlugin and IOPlugin to Overlay (the plugin host):
     * <xmp>
     * var o = new Overlay({plugins: [ AnimPlugin, {fn:IOPlugin, cfg:{section:"header"}}]});
     * </xmp>
     * </p>
     * <p>
     * Plug.Host's protected <a href="#method_initPlugins">_initPlugins</a> and <a href="#method_destroyPlugins">_destroyPlugins</a> 
     * methods should be invoked by the host class at the appropriate point in the host's lifecyle.  
     * </p>
