+LuCI UCI model library.
+
+The typical workflow for UCI is: Get a cursor instance from the
+cursor factory, modify data (via Cursor.add, Cursor.delete, etc.),
+save the changes to the staging area via Cursor.save and finally
+Cursor.commit the data to the actual config files.
+LuCI then needs to Cursor.apply the changes so deamons etc. are
+reloaded.
