Lift stores a mapping between GUIDs it assigns to HTML elements on the
client to functions to execute when those elements are processed by the
server. For example:
SHtml.text("", s => println("The text box was "+s))
The function (s => println("The text box was "+s)) is stored on the server.
The <input type="text" .../> tag has a GUID that binds the HTML element to
the function. If the HTML element is not on the client any more, the
reference to the function should be dropped so it's not using resources.
This is garbage collection. It is not JVM garbage collection, but it is
removal of unused references.
