I don't see why you'd need an effect per class in any implementation.

Do you have a description of your design somewhere on the wiki?  Basically,
I'm wondering: how much freedom do we give the ruleset designers (keeping
in mind that the more freedom the more complicated the coding), and how
should we best provide that freedom?
