Re: what is __LZUserClassPlacementObject, and who is looking up a class for that tag?

You have conditionalized the check in makeChild to require that tags  
be implemented by Class objects, not Function.  Is this a strict  
requirement in AS3?  Is Class not a subclass of Function?

Maybe this is the way we want to go.  If so, yes, you will have to  
make this kludge a class.  We ought to unify the test in makeChild so  
that you can't accidentally write a non-class tag implementation in  
the sloppier run times...
