FWIW, I don't think that MEF gives you the ability to unload a component

>>  Hey guys.

>> I'm looking at some more serious modifications that we could do for

>> IKernel.RemoveComponent (not to be confused with IKernel.ReleaseComponent or
>> IWindsorContainer.Release). I'm talking about method that is the opposite of
>> Register, not Resolve.

>> So my question is - what do you think about this idea - did anyone of you
>> ever really used this? If so - why and for what?
>>
>> feedback greatly appreciated, thanks
