Research direction

Start by reading the referenced Python namer implementation in approvaltests/core/namer.py, then inspect the Java namer classes and compare their public functions. Determine how the Java design can be simplified to match the stated Python approach; done means the Java namers no longer require the current four-or-more-function structure.
