> There is no real separation of responsibilities between JavaSpecification and JavaIntrospector... the responsibility for introspecting is really a responsibility of the FacetFactories that make up the programming model in action.  These two classes should therefore be combined.
> In addition, the JavaIntrospector currently takes responsibility for applying the ordering of members.  In the future we might want to make this a "post-processing" operation, in effect overlaying a UI "schema" for the layout of object members.  (The MetaWidget library does something like this, to good effect).
> As a first step, we should make clear the raw set of associations/actions; and then make clear the transformation of these sets into ordered/laid out sets.
