 * \brief Writer ala DOM (Document Object Model)
 * \details This class is a non-validating writer, it will only performs well-
 * formedness check only.
 *
 * \details Detailled description here
 * To avoid GDCM being yet another broken DICOM lib we try to
 * be user level and avoid writing illegal stuff (odd length,
 * non-zero value for Item start/end length ...)
 * Therefore you cannot (well unless you are really smart) write
 * DICOM with even length tag.
 * All the checks are consider basics:
 * - Correct Meta Information Header (see gdcm::FileMetaInformation)
 * - Zero value for Item Length (0xfffe, 0xe00d/0xe0dd)
 * - Even length for any elements
 * - Alphabetical order for elements (garanteed by design of internals)
 * - 32bits VR will be rewritten with 00
 *
 * \warning
 * gdcm::Writer cannot write a DataSet if no SOP Instance UID (0008,0018) is found,
 * unless a DICOMDIR is being written out
 *
 * \see Reader DataSet File
