Comment (by pgiraud):

 Here's a new patch for this ticket.
 As proposed, the FramedBubble doesn't inherit from an existing class.
 Though, it behaves like an AnchoredBubble and offers the same APIMethod
 and APIProperties. I kept the same namespace. I'm not sure this is a good
 idea though.

 What this code does :
  - resize the bubble based on its content,
  - allow user to define his own bubble decoration by setting a different
 image and dimensions (see framedPopups.html and click on "change
 decoration"),
  - shift the map if bubble isn't entirely viewable

 What should be easy to add to the code :
  - the animated panning when map is shifted,
  - the animation when the popup is resized

 What the code is still missing :
  - a way to handle overflow 'auto' when the content size is too large,
  - the close button creation should rely on a property of the bubble,
  - a well documented procedure on how to create the decoration bubble
 properties (an image with dimensions is available on the framedPopups.html
 example page though)
