/**
* Handles building members (properties, methods)
*
* This prototype could have easily been refactored into a number of others
* (e.g. one for each type of member), but that refactoring has been deferred
* until necessary to ensure ease.js maintains a relatively small footprint.
* Ultimately, however, such a decision is a micro-optimization and shouldn't
* harm the design and maintainability of the software.
