Remarks

Representation of a Content Browser item.

FContentBrowserItem is potentially a composite of multiple internal items (eg, combining equivalent folder items from different data sources), and defers back to these internal items to provide its functionality (via the data source that owns each internal item).

	FContentBrowserItem ( FContentBrowserItemData&& InItem )	Construct this composite item from the given internal item(s).
	FContentBrowserItem ( const FContentBrowserItemData& InI... )	Default constructor.
	FContentBrowserItem ( TArrayView< const FContentBrowserIt... )	Default constructor.
	FContentBrowserItem ( const FContentBrowserItem& )	Copy support.
	FContentBrowserItem ( FContentBrowserItem&& )	Move support.
