No, this would not be for the stable release.  But what I'm saying is 
that it's nice that a program cleans up after itself but we shouldn't 
rely on it.  Take resources like memory, file handles, sockets, etc.  
Most program release those resources when the shut down normally but 
what if they seg fault or exit unexpectedly?  The kernel cleans up after 
the process regardless.

So if a fb program restores the mode properly then we should do nothing 
but if it doesn't either because of a bad programming or an unexpected 
termination then we should reset the mode to what the user has selected 
for their console.

Trust me. I wish the console would cleanup itself. It would take a good 
amount of work to redo.
