The class namespace supports the dot notation, though there is no 
hierarchy definition in that namespace. That would allow all the X 
classes to be X.<something>. This would give the additional advantage of 
being able to label all the X classes with the same type using policycon 
(for the policy server).

The policy server already uses the dot notation to seperate all of its 
object classes (policy.type, policy.user and so on).
