I think you are mistaken about the dtor not being called at design time.
I've attached a simple component that has Destroy overridden.
It is called at design time. (I get the "Being Destroyed" message
at designtime if i delete the component from a form - or close the
form etc)

Subject: [DUG]: Deleting components at design time
Can anyone tell me how I can trap deleting a component from a form (from
within the component) at design time. It doesn't seem to call the
destructor.
