/**
* WriteableRenderedImage is a common interface for objects which
* contain or can produce image data in the form of Rasters and
* of tiles.
* <p>
* WritableRenderedImage provides notification to other interested
* objects when a tile is checked out for writing (via the
* getWritableTile method) and when the last writer of a particular
* tile relinquishes its access (via a call to releaseWritableTile).
* Additionally, it allows any caller to determine whether any tiles
* are currently checked out (via hasTileWriters), and to obtain a
* list of such tiles (via getWritableTileIndices, in the form of a Vector
* of Point objects).
* <p>
* Objects wishing to be notified of changes in tile writability must
* implement the TileObserver interface, and are added by a
* call to addTileObserver. Multiple calls to
* addTileObserver for the same object will result in multiple
* notifications. An existing observer may reduce its notifications
* by calling removeTileObserver; if the observer had no
* notifications the operation is a no-op.
* <p>
* It is necessary for a WritableRenderedImage to ensure that
* notifications occur only when the first writer acquires a tile and
* the last writer releases it.
*
