...except DelphiMax it seems, I have the feeling it's because
DlphiMax is the only one which also starts its own GUI.
Somehow it doesn't unload correctly i.e. in multi match mode
under WB the match goes on, but the GUI window stays on the
screen from the last position of each game before.
WBTM doesn't allow this and waits for completely unloading,
which doesn't happen.
