That is reasonable, but I think this needs to be co-ordinated with other
ongoing work. Most obviously, Kresten Krab Thorup, is working on an
interpreter, which also uses the CLASSPATH. Also, there has been some
discussion about the appropriate API for classpaths and claspath
entries. The standard classpath entries are of two kinds: directories
and .zip/.jar files. We at least one more kind: pre-compiled shared
libraries (dlls). I don't know how ResourceBundle would fit into this
model. This suggest a ClassPath object is a list of
ClassPathEntry ojects, where ClassPathEntry is an abstract class.
