// This will create a function that will cycle through a class_list on elem 
// calling the optional callbacks before and/or after.
// If class_list is given as a string, then this will create a toggler that 
// will turn the given class on the element on and off.
//
// Elem is a jquery compatible object; default use-case: a css selector.
//
// This will return a function with the folowing signature:
//
// 	func() -> <state>
// 	func(<action>) -> <state>
// 	func(<target>, <action>) -> <state>
//
//
// In the first form this just toggles the state.
//
// In forms 2 and 3, if class_list is a string, the <action> can be :
// 	- <index>		: 0 for 'off' and 1 for 'on' (see below)
// 	- 'on'			: switch mode on -- add class
// 	- 'off'			: switch mode off -- remove class
// 	- '!'			: reload current state, same as toggler(toggler('?'))
// 	- '?'			: return current state ('on'|'off')
//
// In forms 2 and 3, if class_list is a list of strings, the <action> can be:
//  - <index>		: explicitly set the state to index in class_list
//  - <class-name>	: explicitly set a class from the list
// 	- '!'			: reload current state, same as toggler(toggler('?'))
// 	- '?'			: return current state ('on'|'off')
//
//
// In the third form the <target> is a jquery-compatible object.
//
// In all forms this will return the current state string or null if the
// action argument given is invalid.
//
// NOTE: action '?' is handled internally and not passed to the callbacks.
// NOTE: there is a special action 'next', passing it will have the same
// 		effect as not passing any action -- we will change to the next 
// 		state.
// NOTE: if it is needed to apply this to an explicit target but with 
// 		no explicit action, just pass 'next' as the second argument.
// NOTE: a special class name 'none' means no class is set, if it is present 
// 		in the class_list then that state will be with all other state 
// 		classes removed.
// NOTE: <class-name> must be an exact match to a string given in class_list
// NOTE: of only one callback is given then it will be called after the 
// 		class change...
// 		a way around this is to pass an empty function as callback_b
// NOTE: leading dots in class names in class_list are optional. 
// 		this is due to several times I've repeated the same mistake of 
// 		forgetting to write the classes without leading dots, the class 
// 		list is not normalized...
// NOTE: the toggler can be passed a non-jquery object, but then only an
// 		explicit state is supported as the second argument, the reason 
// 		being that we can not determain the current state without a propper
// 		.hasClass(..) test...
//
//
// This also takes one or two callbacks. If only one is given then it is
// called after (post) the change is made. If two are given then the first
// is called before the change and the second after the change.
//
// The callbacks are passed two arguments:
// 	- <action>		: the state we are going in
// 	- <target>		: the target element or the element passed to the 
// 					  toggler
// 
//
// The callback function will have 'this' set to the same value as the 
// toggler itself, e.g. if the toggler is called as a method, the 
// callback's 'this' will reference it's parent object.
//
// NOTE: the pre-callback will get the "intent" action, i.e. the state the
// 		we are changing into but the changes are not yet made.
// NOTE: if the pre-callback explicitly returns false, then the change will
// 		not be made.
