Hmm... well, as long as it's optional behavior... as in my case I 
actually want to go in the opposite direction... short-lived tool 
which claims x resources and is run once for every file...

So in this case, resources should be "free:ed" _unless_ it's at 
program termination... as then it just slows down the shutdown 
procedure, the OS reclaim it faster anyway.
