No, I never thought that far. I am simpy thinking from the point of view of a toolbox manager: When does it need to instantiate a tool? - once for the entire runtime? (scope global) - or once for every template processing? (scope local) - or once for every xyz (scope xyz) If 'scope' is not the right term here, let me what would be better.
