Ok, correct me if I am wrong; ComponentA dependsOn ComponentB. They are in different classloaders. The proper handling of this would be to decommission, in Avalon-terms stop()/dispose() of ComponentA, or container interaction with a ComponentB-proxy, which drops the reference. I have tried to locate such behaviour, and concluded that Kernel didn't support it 'natively' and that some outer system was needed to assist in such handling.
