From my point of view that is not right. If a job description is a file 
it should inherit from that class and that is not the case. Furthermore 
when you submit a job to submission web service you submit a string. For 
example in the glite pluggin:

String jdl = translateJSDLtoJDL( jsdl );
     ...
jobSubmitted = submit( jdl, jsdl.getProject().getVO(), 
subMonitor.newChild( 9 ) );


So a job description is not a file, neither a string, for me it is a job 
description.
