Why pi?

I'm looking at the speech bubble widget lesson and trying to understand the syntax. Why does pi appear in the following lines and what does its use mean?

metadata bubbleText.editor is "com.livecode.pi.string"
metadata bubbleColor.editor is "com.livecode.pi.enum"

Thanks.

Hi Scott,

pi is short for "Property Inspector". The string and enum editors are part of the property inspector.

OK, no reserved word conflict there :-)

Thanks.
