Description:
Right now an application can be renamed or deleted even if a user and one of their profiles depend on that application.  This applies as well to the deletion of roles and permissions from an application.  Perhaps the best place for these constraint checks is higher up in the chain of command near the Rms facility up at the top.  

This is not easy because often alterations to entities request changes from the respective factory rather than going up and asking the Rms object.  We can work around this problem by building a constraint checker interface.  This implementation can have a high level scope where it sees all the factories and can ask the right questions regarding dependencies to determine if constraints will be violated or not.

This is not a trivial change.
