This would have been a good idea to add when the ECMA-style format was 
changed to add this sort of information.

You can check the Base/BaseTypeName node, which will tell you if it's a 
System.ValueType, System.Delegate (or MulticastDelegate), System.Enum, 
or otherwise a class/interface.  The good thing about the type 
signatures in C# is "interface" and "class" are keywords, so they should 
never be the names of types.  If " class " is in the signature, then 
it's a class.

All of the Mono class library documentation is in the modified format. 
See: http://www.nullenvoid.com/mono/wiki/index.php/ECMAStyleDocumentation

Good luck with the SWF app.
