OSID - osid.tracking.rules.QueueProcessorSmartFrontOfficeSession Service Interface Definition

Interface	osid.tracking.rules.QueueProcessorSmartFrontOfficeSession
Implements	`osid.OsidSession`
Used By	`osid.tracking.rules.TrackingRulesManager`
Used By	`osid.tracking.rules.TrackingRulesProxyManager`
Description	This session manages queries and sequencing to create "smart" dynamic front office. a `QueueProcessorQuery` can be retrieved from this session and mapped to this `FrontOffice` to create a virtual collection of queue processors. The queue processor may be sequenced using the `QueueProcessorSearchOrder` from this session. This `FrontOffice` has a default query that matches any queue processor and a default search order that specifies no sequencing. The queries may be examined using a `QueueProcessorQueryInspector`. The query may be modified by converting the inspector back to a `QueueProcessorQuery`.
