Request if Object/Macro exists

We can already do "APPLICATION_QUERY"s, but for images only.
I think we need also a way to check if an object exists. If it's not there, scripters could do a sensible replacement and prevent the whole object from failing.

how about you define a new subtype custom component collection (like custom doorpanel etc.)?

this way the user can choose from a narrow list of macros. if you provide a macro of said subtype with the file_dependence command you should be fine.
