+# From here on, we'll need to be able to figure out a delegation target.
+# -----------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+# The rules for delegation are:
+#
+# 1. If the specification is so general that it matches the default config
+# (ie. this one on a first pass), then the default config will be used
+# even if other installed libs would also match the spec.
+#
+# 2. If the default config does not match, find a list of all installed
+# libraries that do match.
+# a. If that list is empty, the specification is incompatible
+# with any installed lib. Warn and abort.
+# b. If that list contains exactly one candidate. Delegate to
+# that candidate.
+# c. If the list contains multiple candidates, pass on to step 3.
+#
+# 3. Attempt to discriminate among rival candidates by their similarity
+# to the default configuration (ie. this one). If we can find a unique
+# candidate in this way, delegate to it. If not, present a list of
+# options to the user and request that they disambiguate it with one or
+# more additional fields.
+#
+# To refine the specified pattern, we specialise each unbound field
+# using the default value from this config file. If that results in
+# no matches, we unbind it again and try the next field. If it still
+# results in multiple matches we try binding the next field as well
+# until a unique or null result again occurs.
+#
+# A more general way to look at this, is the feature specifiers are all
+# modifiers of the wx-config you are calling. If you supply none, the
+# default for that build configuration will be used. If you supply one
+# or more that the default build cannot satisfy, it will try to find the
+# config most like itself with the desired feature(s) enabled.
+# The features configured into the first wx-config called will be taken
+# as implicitly specified if it is necessary to disambiguate likely
+# candidates from the information that was explicitly provided.
+
+
+# But first, more sugar to keep what follows clear and legible.

+# The real worker part of find_best_delegate below. Recurses though all
+# unbound options binding them one at a time to the default derived from
+# this file until a unique match is made or no alternatives remain that
+# may be sensibly guessed at. It will preferentially bind the unspecified
+# options in the order they are listed in wxconfig_schema. Using this
+# partial ordering it should find the first match with the most significant
+# similarity to this file that unambiguously meets the user specification.
+# If such a match exists it will be output to stdout.
+#
+# Be careful if you modify this function. If the pruning logic is rendered
+# inoperative it will simply recurse over every permutation in the search
+# space, which may still appear to work, but add a couple more options (or
+# explicitly specify a few less) and you may not live long enough to learn
+# the result. WXDEBUG=findprogress is your friend here, it will show you
+# how many nodes get searched before a result. If you start seeing
+# increases in that number for the same input, check your work.
+# Raising the number of discriminating options from 6 to 8 raised the worst
+# case time for this to run (without pruning) from 3 to nearly 15 seconds
+# and its downhill fast from here if we have to ride that boat.
+# Early pruning still gets that down to under half a second (up from about
+# .25), so we have some breathing space yet before a different search method
+# will be called for, but lets not squander it.
