You can do a "pseudo-finalizer" method in an object that just ends by 
"Free;".

Here you (e.g. ion a thread) can create an object and queue that 
function via TThread.Queue, TThread.Synchronize, or 
Application.QueueAsyncCall. Now the object is automatically freed 
without you needing to bother about saving it (i.e. a pointer to same) 
in a variable.

(AFAIK implementing "real" finalizer methods - supposedly just syntax 
candy for exactly this) has already been discussed in the FPC developers 
message list)
