Some thingies in UML are classifiers.  They're drawn as rectangles, the
most famous one is a Concept also called a Class, others include
Interfaces and Enums.  They share certain properties and so could share a
superclass UMLClassifier in Umbrello.

Classifiers also have lists of things, so Classes have Attributes and
Operations famously but can also have Responsibilities and Signals and
whatever you want (if you stereotype it).  Lists are drawn in
compartments inside the classifier.  These could also share a common
superclass.

Does that explain it?
