+Registering New Implementations
+
+    If you have developed a new object or ACL verifier implementation, you
+    must register that implementation in the database before objects of
+    that type or ACL lines of that scheme can be created.  To do this, use
+    the wallet-admin command-line client:
+
+        wallet-admin register object <type> <class>
+        wallet-admin register verifier <scheme> <class>
+
+    where <type> or <scheme> is the object type or ACL scheme and <class>
+    is the Perl class which implements that object type or ACL verifier.
