// ##########
// An Item is an object that adheres to an interface consisting of these methods: 
//   getContainer: function() 
//   getBounds: function() 
//   setBounds: function(rect)
//   setPosition: function(left, top, immediately) 
//   setSize: function(width, height)
//   close: function() 
//   addOnClose: function(referenceObject, callback)
//   removeOnClose: function(referenceObject)
// 
// In addition, it must have a property, isAnItem, set to true. 
// Its container must also have a jQuery data named 'item' that points to the item.
