Richelieu just suggested soething in relation to names which I like even
better:

  get_name()       =&gt;    get_dbref()
  assign_name()    =&gt;    assign_dbref()
  deassign_name()  =&gt;    deassign_dbref()
  ,name            =&gt;    ,dbref

I like this a lot.  I realized that Greg wants to make sure people realize that
objects can exist and not be VR, but I dont think that bending them into
awkward naming schemes is the way to do it...?
