The destruction is not triggered there yet, it happens much later when the user
does some
actions. The errors come immediately when the Unit is created. The unit does
work and all the
bindings seem to get updated, but the initial stream of errors is a bit
worrying to me.

Ha! I tried something like this, but not exactly like that. Your version works
perfectly and there are
no longer any error messages. It is a bit of a kludge, but I'll take a cleanish
kludge over errors any
day.
Thank you for the tip!
