I’ve updated the Interface last night to match that of FPC Trunk.

I was about to refactor the “CustApp” unit when I realised that if I
change the TCustomApplication class to use the Interface Delegation (and
very nice code reuse), then backwards compatibility with any existing
TCustomApplication descendants will be broken. :-/ Probably not an
option then, which is unfortunate. Unless you know of a different way it
can be done?

Maybe introduce a new CustApp2 unit (terrible name I know), and mark the
existing one as deprecated?
