+
+By 'intelligently' the following is meant: by default, all
+windows use their own default attributes. However if some of the
+parent's attributes are explicitly changed (that is, using
+SetFont and not SetDefaultFont) and if the corresponding
+attribute hadn't been explicitly set for this window itself, then
+this window takes the same value as used by the parent. In
+addition, if the window overrides ShouldInheritColours to return
+false, the colours will not be changed no matter what and only
+the font might.
+
+This rather complicated logic is necessary in order to accomodate
+the different usage scenarius. The most common one is when all
+default attributes are used and in this case, nothing should be
+inherited as in modern GUIs different controls use different
+fonts (and colours) than their siblings so they can't inherit the
+same value from the parent. However it was also deemed desirable
+to allow to simply change the attributes of all children at once
+by just changing the font or colour of their common parent, hence
