/** A LifecycleListener can be added to an {@link Application} via {@link Application#addLifecycleListener(LifecycleListener)}. It
 * will receive notification of pause, resume and dispose events. This is mainly meant to be used by extensions that need to
 * manage resources based on the life-cycle. Normal, application level development should rely on the {@link ApplicationListener}
 * interface.</p>
 * 
 * The methods will be invoked on the rendering thread. The methods will be executed before the {@link ApplicationListener}
 * methods are executed.
