I stayed for a while thinking in how to make the singleton in a Solar
way. Solar has very few singletons (Solar itself and the new
Solar_Request also acts as one, because of the static properties). I
haven't tried the registry, and indeed, that would be a more Solar
way.

I agree, let's make the constructor public and use the registry to
store the instances (and drop getInstance(), getting closer to how
things are done in Solar).

thanks for the feedback. :-)
