  * Provides a render element for a set of links rendered as a drop-down button.
  *
+ * By default, this element sets #theme so that the 'links' theme hook is used
+ * for rendering, with suffixes so that themes can override this specifically
+ * without overriding all links theming. If the #subtype property is provided in
+ * your render array with value 'foo', #theme is set to links__dropbutton__foo;
+ * if not, it's links__dropbutton; both of these can be overridden by setting
+ * the #theme property in your render array. See template_preprocess_links()
+ * for documentation on the other properties used in theming; for instance, use
+ * element property #links to provide $variables['links'] for theming.

+ * Properties:
+ * - #links: An array of links to actions. See template_preprocess_links() for
+ *   documentation the properties of links in this array.
