  Creates a catalog item and adds it to the 'manual' catalog, with the corresponding Class definition (loaded by a classloader) registered and available in the classloader.

  Note that the class will be available for this session only, although the record of the item will appear in the catalog DTO if exported, so it is recommended to edit the 'manual' catalog DTO if using it to generate a catalog, either adding the appropriate classpath URL or removing this entry.
