[DONE!]System-wide Events IIntuition>StartScreenNotifyTags

Is it at all possible to include in some system functions...

such as Intuition::OpenScreen()+CloseScreen() to have a registered "event.class" handle calling an Application registered hook?

This may be a big ask (is intuition internally able to do this or can this push through commodities/application libraries?)

One of t reasons I am asking the need for a complex gadget class as an iccss child needing to respond to screens opening/closing (at least public ones) so that a "LanguageBar" Window can be display-cloned to it.

The dget class itself has a core instance with multiple "display" interconnect sets added to opened screens.

I know I will open a "master" instance on the default public screen but wish to push non-master copies to additional screens so that perception is always accessible.

And I am asking about this so that I can avoid patching the system and introducing an instability f when the patch may be removed.

Or is it better that the library containing these boopsi classes simply locks itself into memory never to be released?
