What exactly is a "factory object id?"  For example, if I have MyCell, a
subclass of Cell, which I want to be the cell class of a matrix, what do I
give to -setCellClass: ?

In 0.9, I could just say
	[aMatrix setCellClass:MyCell]
but in 1.0 that gives me a compile-time error: "parse error prior to
MyCell" (may not be the exact wording).

Do you need to do something like 
	[aMatrix setCellClass:[self findClass:"MyCell"]]
or is there a more natural way to do this?
