StatementHolder

This interface denotes an AST-Node that can contain code. This code is stored as statements. This includes Translation units namespaces and classes as some languages, mainly scripting languages allow code placement outside of explicit functions.

The reason for not only using a statement property that encapsulates all code in an implicit compound statements is that code can be distributed between functions and an encapsulating compound statement would imply a block of code with a code region containing only the statements.
