31     A provider is an object that others can build dependencies
32     on. Providers can themselves also be dependents and thus
33     be invalid/revalidated in turn. Revalidating a provider may,
34     as a side-effect, re-validate its dependents -- it is up to
35     the implementation to determine the appropriate action.
