// <synopsis>
// VisibilityIterator2 provides iteration with various sort orders
// for one or more MSs. It has member functions to retrieve the fields
// commonly needed in synthesis calibration and imaging.

// One should use <linkto class="VisBuffer">VisBuffer</linkto>

// </code>

// <motivation>
// For imaging and calibration you need to access an MS in some consistent
// order (by field, spectralwindow, time interval etc.). This class provides
// that access.
