// A helper class that stays in sync with a preference (bool, int, real,
// string or filepath).  For example:
//
// class MyClass {
//  public:
//   MyClass(PrefService* prefs) {
//     my_string_.Init(prefs::kHomePage, prefs);
//   }
//  private:
//   StringPrefMember my_string_;
// };
//
// my_string_ should stay in sync with the prefs::kHomePage pref and will
// update if either the pref changes or if my_string_.SetValue is called.
//
// An optional observer can be passed into the Init method which can be used to
// notify MyClass of changes. Note that if you use SetValue(), the observer
// will not be notified.
