1. [Enh]: MAMessagingStringWriter …

   Enables delegating string writing to an arbitrary object via any of its messages. 
   
   *Limitation:* cannot be used when 1) the message receiver is the container and 2) descriptions are cached e.g. when using the description for the first object in a homogeneous collection for the whole collection.
   
   Here is an example (which illustrates #1 in the limitation above and so wouldn't work with a cached description):
   
   ```
   MyDomainClass>>employeeDescription
   	<magritteDescription>
   	
   	| message writer reference |
   	message := MessageSend 
   		receiver: self
   		selector: #employeeDisplayString.
   	
   	writer := MAMessagingStringWriter new
   		messageSend: message.
   	
   	reference := MAContainer new 
   		stringWriter: writer;
   		yourself.
   
   	^ MAToOneRelationDescription new
   		reference: reference;
   		accessor: #employee;
   		yourself
   ```
