    Saving the image closes source files, kills all processes and does
    other cleanups. The general idea is to<br>
    - avoid saving in the image state that may be invalid if the image
    is ran on a different environment<br>
    - make all 'static' state recreable from source at startup, and
    exercise that code all the time.<br>
    <br>
    This is consistent with the general recommendation of using files to
    save dev work, not the image.<br>
    <br>
    As we move towards a small, minimal image that loads pre-compiled
    libraries, this will only be ever more so.<br>
    <br>
    Cheers,<br>
