+/**
+ * ResourceStore which uses a DataAccessor for backend access.
+ *
+ * The DataAccessor interface provides elementary store operations such as read and write.
+ * This DataAccessorBasedStore uses those elementary store operations
+ * to implement the more high-level ResourceStore contact, abstracting all common functionality
+ * such that new stores can be added by implementing the more simple DataAccessor contract.
+ * DataAccessorBasedStore thereby provides behaviours for reuse across different stores, such as:
+ *  * Converting container metadata to data
+ *  * Converting slug to URI
+ *  * Checking if addResource target is a container
+ *  * Checking if no containment triples are written to a container
+ *  * etc.
+ *
+ * Currently "metadata" is seen as something that is not directly accessible.
+ * That means that a consumer can't write directly to the metadata of a resource, only indirectly through headers.
+ * (Except for containers where data and metadata overlap).
+ *
+ * The one thing this store does not take care of (yet?) are containment triples for containers
+ *
+ * Work has been done to minimize the number of required calls to the DataAccessor,
+ * but the main disadvantage is that sometimes multiple calls are required where a specific store might only need one.
