Detailed Description

This is a concrete CODEX_Quorum::MessageDispatcher.

It is designed for a system in which different classes of messages are distinguished by a one-byte type identifier, after which class-specific parsers are employed. This is dynamically configurable, in that new parsers can be added at any time, as long as they use unique type identifers.
