/**
 * This class is the abstract superclass of all classes that implement
 * the concept of a permission.  A permission consists of a permission name 
 * and optionally a list of actions that relate to the permission.  The
 * actual meaning of the name of the permission is defined only in the
 * context of a subclass.  It may name a resource to which access permissions
 * are granted (for example, the name of a file) or it might represent
 * something else entirely.  Similarly, the action list only has meaning
 * within the context of a subclass.  Some permission names may have no
 * actions associated with them.  That is, you either have the permission
 * or you don't.
 *
 * The most important method in this class is <code>implies</code>.  This
 * checks whether if one has this permission, then the specified
 * permission is also implied.  As a conceptual example, consider the
 * permissions "Read All Files" and "Read File foo".  The permission
 * "Read All Files" implies that the caller has permission to read the
 * file foo.
 *
 * <code>Permission</code>'s are not dynamic objects.  Once created, a 
 * <code>Permission</code>'s name and action list cannot be changed.
