I tested closing with cross on window an got both calls chained. I was
able to call delete in both functions. If I do it in the function which
is called first, the second function was not called as expected.

So I am fine with that. Valgrind did not detect any memory leaks or
wrong access on deleted memory, so I am in hope to stay with this
solution :-)

Thanks!
