public class AnswerDataFactory
extends Object

This is not a factory, actually, since there's no drop-in component model, but it could be in the future. Just wanted a centralized place to dispatch common templating methods. In the future this could be a legitimate factory which is stored in... say... the evaluation context

The one-template to rule them all. Takes in a control type and a data type and returns the appropriate answer data template with which to cast incoming values. All enormous spaghetti ifs should be replaced with a call to this
