It does move it, and I expect it to be okay. It moves the DPMS-on
earlier, because CloseDownExtensions happens way before CloseScreen.
CDE is so close to Dispatch that this should be indistinguishable from
"the last request processed was a DPMS on", and if we can't CloseScreen
in that scenario then we're already in a world of hurt.
