/// presentation properties to the `GraphicalPresenter`.

    /// Presents the view described by `view_spec`.

    ///
    /// `view_spec.view_holder_token` and `view_spec.view_ref` must be valid,
    /// otherwise `PresentView` will fail with `ViewControllerEpitaph.INVALID_VIEW_SPEC`.
    ///
    /// ## ViewController
    ///
    /// `view_controller_request` allows clients to receive a `ViewController` for the
    /// presented view. The client can use the `ViewController` to control the view's
    /// presentation and receive events.
    ///

    /// no longer being presented, and will not be presented in the future.

    /// If the client closes the `view_controller_request`, or does not provide a request
    /// to `PresentView`, the view may be dismissed at any time with no signal to the client.

    /// For views that come from elements, the annotations are expected to be the same
    /// as the annotations for the element. For example, if the `GraphicalPresenter`
    /// component uses `ElementManager` to add an element to the session, and gives it
    /// an annotation, the presenter can expect that annotation to be passed back in
    /// `ViewSpec.annotations` for the associated view.

/// that was presented.

/// ## Lifecycle
///
/// The client must keep `ViewController` connected to ensure the view is
/// presented. Once `ViewController` is closed, the view will be
/// permanently dismissed.
///
/// For example, if the view originates from an element, the component
/// that manages the element's lifecycle may choose to stop the element's
/// component once the `ViewController` is closed.
///
/// ## Epitaph
///
/// This protocol is closed with an epitaph:
///
/// * `ViewControllerEpitaph.INVALID_VIEW_SPEC` if the view failed to be
///   presented because of a malformed `ViewSpec`
///   (see [`GraphicalPresenter.PresentView`])
/// * `ViewControllerEpitaph.REJECTED` if the presenter rejected the request
///   to present the view (see [`GraphicalPresenter.PresentView`])
/// * `ViewControllerEpitaph.ZX_OK` when the view is dismissed

    ///
    /// * Annotations are added when their `Annotation.key` was not present in a
    ///   previous set of annotations
    /// * Annotations are updated when their `Annotation.value` is non-null
    /// * Annotations are deleted when their `Annotation.value` is null

    /// been updated and incorporated into the presentation.

    /// view/view holder connection has been severed, and the component
    /// instance serving the view can be terminated.
