yes, not "Headless" please.

why?

It is not a complete NULL UIManager. �A NullUIManager would implement all the API and do nothing (or implement nothing but only #doesNotUnderstand: doing nothing or something like that) �DummyUIManger�DOES stuff, but it makes sures not to end up calling the UI (like progress bar, notifications, confirmations, etc). So, in this particular case, HeadlessUIManager is much more accurate for me than Null.
