I hope that Andrew has included all of these as a single init --
otherwise some of the advantages of black box (1 init, less system
interrupts) will be lost. Plus I would hope the following might be
included: clicking on an app's icon while in that app does not generate
an out of memory message; the ability to have windows associated with a
running app disappear while in another app -- clicking on that app makes
them reappear; ability to replace an app in the icon dock without having
the others "move up" so that new ones added to the dock appear at the
bottom of the list. Screen blanking which does not stop file transfers,
background printing, etc...; removal of the black box config icon so
that another app may be loaded (make it a cdev).
