Watch out! The handler also gets executed, transparently and without the
dialog appearing, whenever you recompile your script. If you've modified
the structure of the return value of GPDL, you'll get a dialog box
asking if you want to use the default values or keep the existing ones.
It also gets executed twice (first time 'silently') when you drop it on
a sprite. This only matters if you put code in there which you expect to
be called once, such as a call to fileIO's displayOpen().

Yes, and I wrote two articles about this specific topic recently, which
you can find easily.
