// Space returns a null Control intended for padding layouts with blank space.
// It appears to its owner as a Control of 0x0 size.
//
// For a Stack, Space can be used to insert spaces in the beginning or middle of Stacks (Stacks by nature handle spaces at the end themselves). In order for this to work properly, make the Space stretchy.
//
// For a SimpleGrid, Space can be used to have an empty cell. A stretchy Grid cell with a Space can be used to anchor the perimeter of a Grid to the respective Window edges without making one of the other controls stretchy instead (leaving empty space in the Window otherwise). Otherwise, you do not need to do anything special for the Space to work (though remember that an entire row or column of Spaces will appear as having height or width zero, respectively, unless one is marked as stretchy).
