Talk to Rich Siegel at ThINK technologies (producers of the long awaited
LightSpeed C 3.0 compiler and other wondrousness).  He mentioned in a
post to comp.sys.mac.programmer (I think that's what it's called) that
he had created a Finder substitute that automatically removed itself
from memory under MultiFinder when you launched another application.
This may not be EXACTLY what you wanted, but I think it will come close.
