Description:
Handle the <deleteEPS> <message> if you want to perform cleanup before an <EPS|EPS object> is removed from the <stack>.

The actual deletion is not triggered by the <deleteEPS> <message>, so <trap|trapping> the <message> and not allowing it to <pass> does not prevent the <EPS|EPS object> from being removed.

However, the undo <command> will restore an <EPS|EPS object> after it is deleted by the user.
