Jason, 

We create new classes in our own namespace.  In the CMDB2.0 Concepts & Best 
Practices Guide - it recommends this as a best practice

Here's the snippet:
"Whenever you extend the data model, you should use your own namespace
instead of BMC.CORE. This prevents your extensions from being overwritten
by new BMC classes when you upgrade to a future version of the CDM.
When creating namespaces, use the naming convention
COMPANYNAME.PURPOSE. For example, if the Acme Company created a set of
classes for storing data about buildings and other facilities-related CIs, 
they might store them in the namespace ACME.FACILITIES."

Hope this helps!
Cindy
