  Extend GObj to add trigger support at this level
  
  * Any object from the top level object is referenced by it's name
  
! * 2 arrays exist triggerAttributes and triggerFunctions which will
!   be populated by the GObj based objects author.  They will contain
!   references to functions. This may be conbinable
  
  * Any object can tag itself as a global object which will make it available
!   to all other objects via it's name
  
  * Any object can reference itself via a self. reference or it's own name
  
! * A hook might be made available for internal properties manipulation
  
! * Do we need "transparent" objects that can opt out of the trigger namespace
!   yet allow their children to be in
  
  
  At init time the GObj tree is parsed.  The following objects are created and 
placed
! into a global trigger namespace.  
  
  GTriggerObject
    * Created for each GObj that requires inclusion in the trigger namespace
    * Contains attributes that link to GTriggerFunction and GTriggerAttribute 
objects
    * Contains the following extra attributes: 
    *   self
