Yes that is correct. Changing one name in a well known file
vs changing 20 names, several of which where in archives
is a lot easier. Come on, the time you spent fixing the testcases
would have been at least an order of magnitude less. It actually
would have been zero because I would have just changed the
mapping and not cared who was referencing the security manager.

Independent of the ease of change, the point here is why even
impose an object naming convention that we don't really care
about on the end user.
