Comparing the two java examples given at [0] and [1], I am not quite
sure how those accept methods would need to be implemented (and if
that's at all what I am looking for). If all there is to implement in
those accept methods is a line of code like 'visitor.visit(this)',
things should be really easy. If the accept method additionally iterates
all referenced objects, things could become quite complex. I am a bit
confused about that pattern now, I admit.
