Why do you need to "clean up" these programs?

I know your question is for Mark, and I'd be interested in hearing his response too, but consider an application like the following:

http://www.radile.com/rdweb/temp/org100.html

The screen depicts a Note which is associated with a Person who is associated with an Organization. But the point is that as a user activates and drills down into tabs, more and more resources are dynamically allocated, and the job's call-stack may lengthen.

If a user were to activate all tabs over time, the application would open about 20 database tables, load about 120 HTML templates into memory, activate about 20 *PGM and 150 *SRVPGM objects, each allocated dynamically - when used.

But see the "Exit" link in the upper-right area of the screen. When that link is clicked, the *JOB associated with the application ends, so all its resources are released, and a portal menu or another peer application (if peer applications are active) is given control.

It may be old fashioned, but it seems reasonable to me to allow users to participate in the allocation and release of system resources.

Nathan.
