Makes sense.

Given that rule of thumb, what do you think of these:

     "GetterSetterImp" => "JSGetterSetter",
     "NumberImp" => "JSNumberCell",
     "StringImp" => "JSString",

     "ArrayInstance" => "JSArray",
     "FunctionImp" => "JSFunction",

Do all of those deserve the JS prefix? Maybe the first three and not  
the last two?

I like the idea. But I'm not crazy about the three WebKit namespaces  
being WTF, JSC, and WebCore. One of these things is not like the others!
