/** \class RooUnblindUniform
    \ingroup Roofit

Implementation of BlindTools' offset blinding method
A RooUnblindUniform object is a real valued function
object, constructed from a blind value holder and a
set of unblinding parameters. When supplied to a PDF
in lieu of a regular parameter, the blind value holder
supplied to the unblinded objects will in a fit be minimized
to blind value corresponding to the actual minimum of the
parameter. The transformation is chosen such that the
the error on the blind parameters is identical to that
of the unblind parameter
