Not a chance ;). One of my real frustrations with the VCL design is the
non-orthagonal handling of dynamic and streamed components. Both are
created, but not the same way and Loaded is only called in the later case.
Other than the constructor there is no hook that I'm aware of which is
called by both creation types.
