// # Semantic Modules
// This particular pattern is useful for describing a group of elements which share behavior, for example a modal or a popup.
// The module is made up of three parts: *a group definition*, *a singular definition*, and a *settings object*.
//
// Semantic is unique in that all arbitrary data is a setting. Semantic modules also are self documenting, with module.debug calls serving to explain state, and log performance data.
