/**
 * Interface to plugin that can take the current state of the
 * Classifier panel and execute it. E.g. A plugin could be
 * made to train and evaluate the configured classifier on
 * remote machine(s).
 * 
 * For full access to the protected member variables in the
 * ClassifierPanel, an implementation will need to be packaged
 * in weka.gui.explorer. The ClassifierPanel looks for implementations
 * when it is constructed, and will provide a new button (in the case
 * of a single plugin) or a button that pops up a menu (in the
 * case of multiple plugins) in order to invoke the launch() method
 * on the plugin.
