After a talk with Robert Maynard, we decided to change the name ArrayContainerControl to Storage. There are several reasons for this change. 1. The name ArrayContainerControl is unwieldy. It is long, hard for humans to parse, and makes for long lines and wraparound. It is also hard to distinguish from other names like ArrayHandleFoo and ArrayExecutionManager. 2. The word container is getting overloaded. For example, there is a SimplePolymorphicContainer. Container is being used for an object that literally acts like a container for data. This class really manages data. 3. The data does not necessarily have to be on the control side. Implicit containers store the data nowhere. Derivative containers might have all the real data on the execution side. It is possible in the future to have storage on the execution environment instead of the control (think interfacing with a simulator on the GPU). Storage is not a perfect word (what does implicit storage really mean?), but its the best English word we came up with.
