build I200212101110

While profiling the large workspace, I saw references to the Tasks view being 
held onto even after closing it (and there were no other perspectives which 
could be referencing it).

The reference chain was:
PerspectivePresentation.mainLayout
 RootLayoutContainer.root
   PartTabFolder.children[i]
     LayoutTree.part
       ContainerPlaceHolder.realContainer
         PartTabFolder.current
           ViewPane.partReference
             ViewReference.part
               TaskList

Yes, I have seen this bug before. We added a fix for it and got some side 
effect so we decided to not fix. The reference eventualy goes away when 
another view is selected in that partTabFolder.

Recomment defering this to 3.0.

Should investigate if we can fix without side effects for M5.

Fixed it by making sure that ViewReference.part is set to null.
Released in the HEAD stream.
