Represents an object that is mainly for storing "text".
It is usually implemented by a class that also implements Item.
A "text" is usually a string (e.g., Text, Comment and CDATA) but
could be any object (e.g., Binary).
The getText method of some parent, e.g., Element, catenates
the text of its children if they implement this interface and
Textual.isPartOfParentText returns true.
Note: the class that implement this interface must have a constructor
with a single argument whose type is String. The split method will
invoke it to create a new instance.
