Chris,
Thank you for the excellent observations and suggestions, all of which we have now incorporated, as you'll see in the forthcoming release:
* The "dismissal handle" will now zap the object only when and if the mouse
*comes back up* within the handle, as per the "button-like" actions
elsewhere in the system, such as the collapse-box of a window.
* Items dismissed via the dismissal handle will now be moved to the
trash, from whence they can be reclaimed.
With many thanks...
-- Scott
