 * JoClass
 * 
 * A JoClass represents a set of names as well as declared security info.
 * 
 * It can map to a Java class, but it doesn't need to. Eg it could be a folder
 * object which contains (and 'names') method objects.
 * 
 * Further a JoClass can have 'class' slots. Those are static name=>object
 * mappings accessible to the JoObject.
