* This is the main interface for client applications.
+ *
+ * Linking and unlinking of personas and individuals is performed entirely
+ * through the aggregator. Personas may be linked together to form individuals;
+ * for example, the personas which form ``individual1`` and ``individual2`` may
+ * be linked together with ``another_persona`` to give a new { link Individual}:
+ * {{{
+ * var personas = new HashSet<Persona> ();
+ * personas.add_all (individual1.personas);
+ * personas.add_all (individual2.personas);
+ * personas.add (another_persona);
+ * yield my_individual_aggregator.link_personas (personas);
+ * }}}
+ *
+ * Similarly, an existing individual may be unlinked to form singleton
+ * individuals for each of its personas:
+ * {{{
+ * yield my_individual_aggregator.unlink_individual (my_individual);
+ * }}}
+ *
+ * Note that to link two individuals together, their two sets of personas must
+ * be linked together. There is no API to directly link the individuals
+ * themselves, as conceptually folks links { link Persona}s, not
+ * { link Individual}s.
