/**
 *  @defgroup ScoreAPIExtension API Extension Handler
 *
 *  This group contains functionality which provides mechanisms for the
 *  SuperCore to perform API specific actions without there being 
 *  "up-references" from the SuperCore to APIs.  If these references 
 *  were allowed in the implementation, the cohesion would be too high
 *  and adding an API would be more difficult.  The SuperCore is supposed
 *  to be largely independent of any API.
