I have been looked to that for a while. The method isInMemory seems to be
used and wide spread it. I even like the idea behind that: some classes are
not in memory. And it is cool that certain options don't want to search in
ALL classes because if you do that you will bring all the classes again to
memory.

Now for example, I explain myself why the OB doesn't bring all classes to
memory (classes that I had in a segment) when browsing a class. And I think
it is because it uses somehow this message (maybe I am wrong...just a few
minutes analying it).

Now I would like to  to fix the implementors and senders because when I do
then, all classes are bring (even from segments). Thus, I can replace that
code to use this method.

What I really don't like at all is the name. What does gently has to do with
inMemory ?  I would really like to refector that if nobody explains why

cheers
