Only a few special classes are directly accessible from Slang. See the
'plugin support' method category in class ObjectMemory. A class which
you define in the image cannot be directly referenced in this manner.

But more importantly, use as a guideline that anything which can be
done in the image probably should be, and that only very specific and
hopefully small things should go into a plugin. The only real exception
would be for something that you simply cannot get access to in any other
way, such as somebody else's compiled object library.
