* Generic interface (implementation) manager
*
* This manager will manage any number of types of interfaces.
*
* This means that when any implementations of our client interfaces register
* or unregister, it is us that makes their interfaces show up in the outside
* world.
*
* And, of course, we have to do this in a very generic way, since we have
* no idea about the client programs or interface types, or anything else.
*
* We do that by getting a parameter passed to us which tell us the names
* of the interface types we want to manage, and the address of a GHashTable
* for each type that we put the implementation in when they register
* themselves.
*
* So, each type of interface that we manage gets its own private
* GHashTable of the implementations of that type that are currently
* registered.
*
* For example, if we manage communication modules, their exported
* interfaces will be registered in a hash table. If we manage
* authentication modules, they'll have their (separate) hash table that
* their exported interfaces are registered in.

* in a broader way, you're free to write your own - it's just another
