UI Interface

The portal interface has become the UI interface. Package view has been merged into framework (both classes) and package view.text has become displays.

My plan is for the direct portal to have two user interface objects, one for user interaction and one for scripts, to drop the requiredDisplay method from commands (its not used), add a new navigates method to commands (to indicate to the UI which commands change context), and to have the UI call the display selected by the command (commands will call a selectDisplay method on the UI to achieve this).

This then sets the groundwork for making displays event driven--events will be calls to methods on the UI from the display.

I also need to take this weekend off for working on taxes.
