public interface RepositoryElementInterface
extends RepositoryObjectInterface

A repository element is an object that can be saved or loaded from the repository. As such, we need to be able to identify it. It needs a RepositoryDirectory, a name and an ID. We also need to identify the type of the element. Finally, we need to be able to optionally identify the revision of the element.
