Yeah, it's not so much that I don't trust myself--there's that.  ;-)  But
it's also the simple DRY principle at work.  Why should I have to list the
classes in that factory-like dictionary when Python can do that for me?

Thankfully, I didn't have to resort to globals()--but took advantage of
Python 2.2's __subclasses__ (which requires subclassing the base class from
object).  That worked smoov.
