  Agreed: Destroy() waits for events sent to the object to be processed before deleting the object. I guess my real question is, why can't the code that waits for events be placed in the destructor? (I know Destroy() rather than delete is a very small change, but it does make encapsulating wx objects in standard shared pointer classes like auto_ptr difficult.)
