"""
Delete the value of a stanza interface using dictionary-like syntax.
Example:
>>> msg['body'] = "Hi!"
>>> msg['body']
'Hi!'
>>> del msg['body']
>>> msg['body']
''
Stanza interfaces are typically mapped directly to the underlyig XML
object, but can be overridden by the presence of a delAttrib method
(or delFoo where the interface is named foo, etc).
The effect of deleting a stanza interface value named foo will be
one of:
1. Call delFoo, if it exists.
2. Delete foo element, if foo is in sub_interfaces.
3. Delete top level XML attribute named foo.
4. Remove the foo plugin, if it was loaded.
5. Do nothing.
