Remember the original case that prompted this discussion: the screen saver 
engine loading two different screen saver bundles that define different 
versions of classes with the same name.

The same situation can arise with Quick Look: the Quick Look daemon might reuse 
worker processes. If you have two apps installed whose generators use different 
versions of the same framework, you could get a conflict.

This really isn't an edge case.
