I think it rates as a bug. The only reason you even "see" it is because you
then can't open the same MIAW again. It makes me wonder if the same doesn't
happen to *all* script objects that rely on a timeout object for
playback-related event registering. The implications of that for folk using
timeouts is enormous in terms of memory-leakage. The docs say nothing about
the need to explicitly void the timeout's target...
Perhaps a memory monitoring test is in order.
