Dummy classes for HTML generation. Each dummy class is a simple extension (it does not add any slots). The purpose of each dummy class is to allow for method dispatch to generate HTML via the htmlValue method.

You can convert convert a PackageDetail instance to one of the dummy classes like this: descInfo <- as(pdObj, "pdDescriptionInfo")
