I'm certain this has been asked and answered before, but I can't find
it anywhere: how can I create an object by name? By this I mean,
instead of doing

   from MyModel.Thing import Thing
   a_thing = Thing()
   ec.insert(a_thing)

what magic do I use to do

   do_magic()
   a_thing = more_magic('Thing')
   ec.insert(a_thing)

?
