I don't see any `dispose` calls being done by the helper code. If I'm correct, switching skins multiple times on a `ProgressIndicator` would create multiple `TreeShowingExpression`s which would create listeners on the `ProgressIndicator` which in turn reference the expression -- this would prevent the discarded skins from being GC'd.
agreed, nested listeners to control's - nested - properties must be removed (whether or not parent was added via the skin api)
Unrelated (and too lazy to check ;) wondering if there are any tests for those nested listeners doing/not their respected jobs after before/after dispose?
