\brief
    Template based WindowFactory that can be used to automatically generate a
    WindowFactory given a Window based class.

    The advantage of this over the previous macro based methods is that there is
    no longer any need to have any supporting code or structure in order to add
    new Window types to the system, rather you can just do:
    \code
    CEGUI::WindowFactoryManager::addFactory<TplWindowFactory<MyWidget> >();
    \endcode

\tparam T
    Specifies the Window based class that the factory will create and
    destroy instances of.
