So to reiterate ...

I can see every instance of a ListView/ListActivity (ever created)
sitting around in memory, even though I force a GC in every call to
onDestroy().
... And this is the expected behavior, because the Dalvik GC will
"eventually" collect them.

Why isn't this the case with other views?
