Remarks
The EditingContext class provides access to two pieces of state:
Data (ContextItem)
Behavior Services (ServiceManager)
Behavior services are accessed through the Services property which returns an instance of a ServiceManager.
ServiceManager is an abstract class. You can provide your own implementation by deriving from EditingContext and overriding CreateServiceManager.
Once a service is created in an EditingContext it is always present. A service cannot be removed from the EditingContext.
Services have consistent instance values, so it is always acceptable to cache them.
Code can use the ServiceManager to publish new services, and subscribe to a callback when a particular service is available.
