/**
 * A model that tracks the selection status of a list of items.  Each item in
 * the list is identified by a zero-based index only, so the model can be used
 * to track the selection status of any type of list.  The model
 * supports three modes:
 * <ul>
 * <li><code>SINGLE_SELECTION</code> - only one item in the list may be
 *     selected;</li>
 * <li><code>SINGLE_INTERVAL_SELECTION</code> - only one interval in the list
 *     may be selected;</li>
 * <li><code>MULTIPLE_INTERVAL_SELECTION</code> - any combination of items in
 *     the list may be selected.</li>
 * </ul>
 * The model uses an event notification mechanism to notify listeners (see
 * {@link ListSelectionListener}) about updates to the selection model.
 * <p>
 * This model is used to track row selections in the {@link JList} component,
 * and row and column selections in the {@link JTable} component.
