It is not the only problem that the destructor deletes the subobjects. The 
objects can be discared elsewhere too (when the user changes from audio track 
to data track (ISO 9660 mastering) - the AudioFileInfo gets discarded and an 
IsoImage object will be created ) 

Er even worse : the user only changes these objects - a cancel cannot undo 
these changes.

I probably will implement copy constructors which will do a deep copy of the 
objects - not only pointers.
