delete?! ;-)

Well, the BeBook is bit unprecise here. The supplied bitmap object is 
already deleted in DragMessage(). I don't know, how D&D is planned to 
be implemented, but I suspect, the the data (drag message, bitmap,...) 
are handed over to the app server, which manages the D&D process 
(sending messages to the concerned windows). Maybe the bitmap data are 
cloned, or maybe they are somehow detached from the bitmap to avoid 
copying...
