On the contrary, the concept of a uvconfig switch that defaults to the
way it currently is would be superb.

If we're going to go on in life never changing anything because it was
always done that way... a working resolution works as long as you know
to add a quit. A better solution would be to have

I agree with Glenn. I don't think you want to open up a can of worms
like this. If there is a working resolution, especially as simple as
putting QUIT in the phantom paragraph, then I wouldn't change it.

FWIW, back at rev 8.3.3 when this issue was first raised, it was decided
that we could not change this behavior as it might affect existing
applications already out in the field that did NOT expect the ON.EXIT to
automatically run at close of a phantom.  The resolution on this was
that
the user can simply add QUIT as the last command in their phantom, which
would force the ON.EXIT to run.

When this issue was again raised at 9.3.1.1, it was given as an
'enhancement', which at that time, meant you wouldn't ever see it.  If
we
had even looked at it, we would have probably come to the same
conclusion
as earlier; we could NOT change behavior if it would have impacted
existing
applications.

I know its not an answer, but it is some history on this event.  I lived
it! :-)
