List with extended functionality: slices of ViewList objects are child
lists, linked to their parents. Changes made to a child list also affect
the parent list. A child list is effectively a "view" (in the SQL sense)
of the parent list. Changes to parent lists, however, do not affect
active child lists. If a parent list is changed, any active child lists
should be recreated.
Also, ViewList objects keep track of the source & offset of each item.
This information is accessible via the source(), offset(), and
info() methods.
