Detailed Description

controller_base framework: controller_base is roughly analogous to a "dialog" class in a GUI toolkit which is appropriate for deriving wesnoth game modes, e.g.

single player mode, multiplayer mode, replay mode, editor mode.

It provides implementation details for:

• play_slice, which is essentially one pass of the "main loop" of the application, pumping and dispatching SDL events, raising draw events, handling scrolling, sound sources, and some joystick issues It also handles displaying menus (Menu, Action).
• showing context menus (much is delegated to command executor though)

Other than this it functions as an abstract interface, enforcing that controllers derive from events::sdl_handler, hotkey_command_executor, and provide some accessors needed for event handling.
