[Laszlo-dev] Any idea what this line from LzParam is supposed to mean?

[Henry Minsky]

I think the original idea must have been to make it available in LZX
somehow, but that was before
my time..


There is one usage I saw in LzDataset

function getParams (){
    if (this.params == null) {
        new LzParam ( this , { name : "params" } );
    }

    return this.params;
}

But that could just be made to bind "this.params = new LzParam()", I
don't see anywhere that  depends on it
being an actual LzNode for any reason.
