But I'd recommend not naming classes (or other symbols) with 'GS'. I
consider GS to be mostly reserved for core/; I don't think it's
reasonable to expect core/ developers to keep track of _all_ external
libraries/frameworks in order to avoid name conflicts.

(Apps/frameworks probably shouldn't start with 'GS', either, but that's
a different issue. :)
