Description: This is a fairly simple class whose purpose is to provide an easy way to map some arbitrary location system onto the locale tree. This base class does essentially nothing, throwing everything into the global locale, but can be subclassed for more useful effects. An example might be to map the IHome x,y location coordinates onto the background picture of the house and figure out the proper locale from that.
