Good point.  In order to do this automatically, we could put the DB
handle disconnect in the END block of C4::Context.  My issue with
doing it *explicitly* in a script or module is that it is easy to
either forget, or to close a handle too early and force the expense of
getting a fresh one (i.e., I just noticed the disconnects in two
functions in C4::Overdues, which I suspect don't belong).

Regards,

Galen
