1. A unitary, disposable diaper comprising main body structure having an outer side possessing a front portion, andintegrated soilage-management structure disposed on said front portion and including (a) an initially closed, but selectively openable, soilage-impervious pocket structure (a) formed collaboratively by a region in said front portion and an independent, continuous, front panel component having four, perimetral edges only three of which are joined to said front portion, (b) having an upper, elongate openable end defined by the front portion's unjoined edge, and (c) possessing a lateral dimension which substantially defines both the effective width of the pocket structure and the length of said openable end, said openable end being nominally closed by a slender, independent-component, substantially full-pocket-width closure flap which is manipulable to expose the openable end for access to the inside of the pocket structure, and(b) initially stored in said pocket structure, an ultimately closeable and sealable, soilage-impervious disposal bag structure having normally open and normally closed ends, deployable from the pocket structure, and thereafter employable to form a soilage-impervious disposal container, said bag structure being attached, in the overall diaper, solely to said main body structure, and at a single attachment point which exists between the bag structure's normally closed end and a location on the main body structure which is immediately adjacent the pocket structure's openable end. 2. A unitary, disposable diaper comprising main body structure having an outer side possessing a front portion, andintegrated with said main body structure, soilage-management structure including (1) soilage-impervious pocket structure formed by (a) a region in said front portion possessing elongate upper, lower, and lateral sides,(b) substantially coextensive with said region, a confronting and spaced front panel having a plurality of elongate perimetral edges, including (i) a pair of lateral edges, (ii) a base edge, and (iii) an upper free edge which is spaced from said front portion and its said region, said panel being continuous between its said edges, said lateral and base edges being joined along their respective lengths, respectively, to said lateral and lower sides of said region, and said upper free edge being free along substantially its entire length, specifically lacking any joinder therealong to said front portion and the upper side of its said region, said upper free edge, together with the spaced and confronting upper side of said region, defining an elongate exposure opening for the pocket structure that extends substantially the full width of the pocket structure along substantially the entire respective lengths of each of said upper free edge of said panel and said upper side of said region, said exposure opening accommodating access to the pocket structure's inside which is defined by the space existing between said panel and said region, and(c), nominally, but openably, closing said exposure opening, in a pre-diaper-change condition of the diaper, an independent-component, elongate, slender closure flap having a length substantially matching those of said upper free edge of said panel and said upper side of said region, said flap being joined along its length to said front portion along said region's said upper side, and immediately adjacent said panel's said free upper edge, selectively manipulable to open said exposure opening at an appropriate time during a diaper-change procedure to expose the inside of the pocket structure for access, and(2) initially stored in said pocket structure, an ultimately closeable and sealable, soilage-impervious disposal bag structure having open and closed ends, attached, only at its said closed end, and through a singular attachment, solely to said main body structure so as to function as a unit therewith, said singular attachment being disposed at a location which is positioned immediately adjacent the pocket structure's said exposure opening, said bag stricture, in the mentioned pre-diaper-change condition of the diaper, being arranged, relative to said pocket structure, in a manner whereby that portion of the bag structure which lies between its closed and open ends extending inwardly into the pocket structure relative to the pocket structure's exposure opening,said bag structure being deployable from the location of said singular attachment outwardly relative to said main body structure so as to be employable, in the performance of a diaper-change procedure, as a soilage-impervious disposal container for receiving and sealing, as a whole, all soiled diaper-associated structure in a contained and sealed condition readied for disposal as a disposable unit.
