1.  Allow toggle to turn off file overwrite message with uiputfile
2.  Officially support uitable.
3.  Support handle objects again.
4.  Make boolean functions such as intersect, union, etc. builtin so they 
operate faster.
5.  Fix listbox highlighted items turning gray when focus shifts to a 
different uicontrol.
