Ian mentioned that already, too.
Ok, gotcha. I don't intend on popping up millions of dialogs in my application, what I meant more was allocating other things, like buffers for images to blit, etc. Those things should definitely be freed by me when no longer required. Of course the widgets themselves may not use much memory, but if I go an allocate a buffer for a sequence of high resolution images, I should manage the memory for them carefully.
