Cocoa has a flat namespace. So we use a shared framework which works
well to some degree.
The real problem is when other plug ins (inadvertently) use the same
names for their classes - this is when things are starting to get
weird.
Even weirder, if plug ins implement their own sub classes (or
categories) to replace or change the behaviour of the standard NS...
classes - this will mess up Logic (and other hosts) really badly
because they are all in the same namespace.
Cocoa and ObjC are great, but this is easily the biggest design flaw
of the whole thing.
