    Description

      Name: eaT66865 Date: 09/16/2002

      RootDoc.classNamed(String) and PackageDoc.findClass(String)
      do the same thing, but have different method names.

      (The RootDoc does require a qualified class name,
      so the same name with the word "qualified" would
      be ideal.)

      Also: A word or two as to the motivation for these
      APIs might be appropriate. At first blush, it's not
      totally clear why they're present. (For example:
      Allows a doclet to gather information from a referenced
      class.)
