These panels are exposed through read only and properties on the control. The control's designer calls for each panel, which allows other components to be dropped on them. But, in order for the contents of and to be saved, the control itself must expose the panels as public properties. Control names must be unique within a control designer, but they are not required to be unique with respect to the children of other control designers. To support this feature, the hosting infrastructure must expose the class as a service through the site.
