+PRELIMINARY.

 Normally, when you add something to a sizer via \helpref{wxSizer::Add}{wxsizeradd}, you have to specify a lot of flags and parameters.  This can be unwieldy.
 
 This is where wxSizerFlags comes in.  Instead of a bunch of flags and other stuff, you can use wxSizerFlags, which is a convenient class for doing so.
