Description Benjamin Muskalla CLA 2009-06-22 10:09:01 EDT
Currently we do not clean up properly when disposing a widget.
We do neither release the display nor the attached data of the widget.
Fixing the data should be straight-forward. Regarding the display:
* we need to fix bug 263048 to not run into NPEs
* we need to rewrite some of our tests as we rely on bug 263048
Both items should be part of bug 263048, this bug is only about nulling data and display on dispose.

none of the mentioned items can be cleaned up easily. Under certain conditions, they are necessary during RENDER.
