+/**
+ * @ingroup tdecmodule
+ *
+ * @brief Encapsulates a TDECModule for embedding.
+ *
+ * TDECModuleProxy is a wrapper for TDECModule intended for cases where
+ * modules are to be displayed. It ensures layout is consistent, handles
+ * root/administrator modules and in general takes care of the details
+ * needed for making a module available in an interface. A TDECModuleProxy
+ * can be treated as a TQWidget, without worrying about the details specific
+ * for modules such as library loading. TDECModuleProxy is not a sub class of TDECModule
+ * but its API closely resembles TDECModule's.\n
+ * Usually, an instance is created by passing one of the constructors a KService::Ptr,
+ * TDECModuleInfo or simply the name of the module and then added to the layout as any
+ * other widget. \n
+ * When the user have changed the module, changed( bool ) as well as changed ( TDECModuleProxy * )
+ * is emitted. TDECModuleProxy does not take care of prompting for saving - if the object is deleted while
+ * changes is not saved the changes will be lost. changed() returns true if changes are unsaved. \n
+ * \n
+ * TDECModuleProxy does not take care of authorization of TDECModules. \n
+ * TDECModuleProxy do lazy loading, meaning the library will not be loaded or
+ * any other initialization done before its show() function is called. This means
+ * modules will only be loaded when they are actually needed as well as it is possible to
+ * load many TDECModuleProxy without any speed penalty.
+ *
+ * TDECModuleProxy should be used in all cases where modules are embedded in order to
+ * promote code efficiency and usability consistency.
