errr .. like the vetos I have given since I have been back that have been 
completely ignored so far?

You misinterpret. I don't really care if lifecycle is part of fortress or not. 
I just don't want it to be part of framework or something I have to support 
at any stage in the future. Technically I think it is crap but if someone 
else wants to support it and implement it then goodluck to em. Best way to 
learn is to do - it is how most people came around to my marker interfaces 
are evil meme :) I may even be wrong and in 6 months could change my mind - 
it has happened before (re legacy/wrapper stuff in framework) but usually I 
have a pretty good track record of spotting crap code.
