This is also going to make common->phpgw_exit unnessesary and so I will 
be removing the function.

In the API as we find functions that are no longer needed, we will be 
removing them. We dont want to continue leaving useless function in the 
API for backward compatibility at this stage in the game. The coreteam 
is working hard to clean up the API to improve performance, stability 
and constancy so that the next version of the API and phpGW as a whole 
faster, more flexible and more stable.
