OK. More specifically, what about double-clicking a document when the
application is not running, with MRJ 2.2? Obviously the 'odoc' event can't
be sent too quickly otherwise the MRJOpenDocumentHandler might not be
registered yet. On the other hand, why is my handler called way past the
constructor of my application? How does MRJ decide it is time to call
MRJOpenDocumentHandler?

(I feel like I am not explaining myself right, so don't be afraid to let me
know if it isn't...)
