simulate rain (up to the caller) and to redistribute the fluid between
adjacent cells (with a slow and simple algorithm).

Productive uses (dubious--discuss) include procedural generation, in
particular music composition where one may want rhythmic effects similar
to water accumulating and then dripping out of a rain gutter.

The cells are held in an array reference (the B<gutter>); the caller may
need to fiddle around with the cells directly simulate various effects.

Various methods may throw errors, for example if a cell lacks an update
callback function. Such callbacks are not mandatory to give the caller
flexibility in wiring up the gutter in fancy ways.

=item B<gutter>

An optional array reference of objects that conform to the

slosh is triggered, and could be set to higher values to make the fluid
behave more like a solid faulting into adjacent cells?

The return value is the number of loops the B<slosh> method took to
level out the fluid.
