Hmm, interesting, I've just checked it out in D85 and it does work - I'm
surprised no-one came up with that when it was discussed before (you should
have been on the list!). OpenLingo presently gets around the problem of
requiring start-up code by using lazy instatiation instead, as part of the
wrapper script: when you call a package for the first time it is
initialised. Cleanup code on shutdown might be a good thing, but if the user
puts a stopMovie handler in the internal cast and forgets to put a pass
statement at the end then the openLingo stopMovie will be ignored anyway. So
far there isn't anything that _needs_ shutdown code, and it may be that we
can get by without it anyway.
