It's a hard problem in general, but dealing properly with class
renames isn't all that hard - we just need to track classes by some
kind of unique ID (which we assign the first time we see them and
maintain from then on) rather than by name. This would be a very
shallow change to MC, and even making it backwards compatible
shouldn't be *that* hard.
