No, what-if's are what nails us to the wall with 30 duplicate bug reports in a single week after a release. What-if's are what list discussion is all about, IMHO :) MOST apps will not do their own cleanup within DllLoad proc create/destroy. The question is first fixing the most common cases (close the doors on them with stdin/stdout, send Ctrl+Break or WM_EXIT, and pause a moment.) Then let's investigate the most thorough way to clobber them hard, but thoroughly :) And we cannot cleanup apr this way either; since the clib will be gone from beneath us before we got that far.
