  //! Not a facet, but a class used to specify and control period formats
  /*! Provides settings for the following:
   *   - period_separator -- default '/'
   *   - period_open_start_delimeter -- default '['
   *   - period_open_range_end_delimeter -- default ')'
   *   - period_closed_range_end_delimeter -- default ']'
   *   - display_as_open_range, display_as_closed_range -- default closed_range
   *
   *  Thus the default formatting for a period is as follows:
   *@code
   *  [period.start()/period.last()]
   *@endcode
   *  So for a typical date_period this would be
   *@code
   *  [2004-Jan-04/2004-Feb-01]
   *@endcode
   * where the date formatting is controlled by the date facet

     *  The steps for formatting a period are always the same:
