Hi Carl, I don't know whether it was intended behavior or not. I have ran into this problem in an extension that I started writing in May or June and it was an issue in that the constructor was called about as many times as i opened the menu.
I posted a message similar to yours to this mailing list and Ariel gave me a solution which was to use a singleton. As a result, I moved the construction code, and handlers, and event listeners, and most of my code actually, into a helper class which implemented a Singleton pattern. From then on, things went smoothly, with the notable exception that the application exit event is posted as many times as there are frames opened. A specific boolean variable can guard a code section so no problem there either. You might want to search the archives for Ariel's reply to my message. Cheers, -Amenel.

[1] For every menu item for the AddOn in the current context (ex Writer), the constructor is called then the Menu is first clicked. If there are 2 menu items the constructor is ran twice. This only happens on the first time per context opened. Is this expected behavior?
