In your __init__.py, you can add a contextInitialize() function. After the
__init__.py is imported, the contextInitialize() (if any) will get called
with 2 arguments: the Application object, and the path to the context
directory. So you can put this into __init__.py:
def contextInitialize(app, ctxPath):
app.addShutDownHandler( ... )
This is not very well documented, but if you google for "contextInitialize"
you will actually find my PowerPoint presentation from the last Python
conference which mentions this obscure feature :-)
