This is a reasonable idea, but it would be less confusing
to give the class variable a different name, such as
'view_class'.

I'm not aware of any specific name for this pattern. I
suppose it could be regarded as an instance of
data-driven programming -- you're putting a piece of
data in the class that describes what is to be done,
instead of writing code to do it.
