The main idea of the new interfaces in Arts::Environment is that the sequencer
can save the environment required to create a song along with the the song, so
-that the user will find himself surrounded by the same effects, instruments,...
-with the same settings again, once he loads the song again.

-So, conceptually, we can imagine the environment as a "room", where the user
-works in to create a song. He needs to install the things inside the room he
-needs. Initially, the room will be empty. Now, the user things: oh, I am going
-to need this nice 24 channel mixer. *plop* - it appears in the room. Now he
-thinks I need some sampler which can play my piano. *plop* - it appears in
-the room.

-Now he starts working, and adds the "items" he needs. Finally, if he stops
-working on the song, he can pack all what is in the environment in a little
-box, and whenever he starts working on the song again, he can start where he
-left off. He can even take the environment to a friend, and continue working
-on the song there.

Note that there might be other tasks (such as creating a film, playing an
mp3 with noatun,...) which will have similar requirements of saving the
