 * \brief Container 
 * It's goal is to change the File header correctly. At this time, the change is 
 * only made for the first level of the Document. In the future, it might 
 * consider Dicom Sequences (SeqEntry, within any SQItem).
 * The change is made by replacing a DocEntry by an other that is created
 * outside the class. The old value is kept. When we restore the File
 * status, the added DocEntry is deleted and replaced by the old value.
