Hi Ducas,

Looks like a pretty tight implementation. I am constantly reminded how it is possible to use a pattern to arrive at good code without having to bring in something as heavy as CAB.

Hi Ducas,

How would the window manager track a form that is not representing a business object? For instance, the MDI application I am maintaining has search forms that shows grids of results, which may (or may not) still be opened, and if the user selects one of these same search forms from the menus/toolbars, that form should be activated.
