        //      description:
        //              This API defines a set of APIs that all datastores that conform to the
        //              Notifications API must implement.  In general, most stores will implement 
        //              these APIs as no-op functions for users who wish to monitor them to be able
        //              to connect to then via dojo.connect().  For non-users of dojo.connect, 
        //              they should be able to just replace the function on the store to obtain
        //               notifications.  Both read-only and read-write stores may implement
        //              this feature.  In the case of a read-only store, this feature makes sense if 
        //              the store itself does internal polling to a back-end server and periodically updates
        //              its cache of items (deletes, adds, and updates).
        //
        //      example:
        //
        //      |       function onSet(item, attribute, oldValue, newValue) {
        //      |               //Do something with the information...
        //      |       };
