It is part of the Kernel that is saved/restored during sleep/resume.

Which is the "normal" operation of the Kindle.

The only way it (other than by button) gets removed is by a "re-boot" of the entire system (holding the power button for 20 or more seconds).

Since I am working on an update to this add-in now - -
Please tell me why you are **re-booting** your Kindle to start it.

I really need to know your use-case to be able to account for what you need. Describe please.

The KUAL launcher and its buttons follow the:
"Do not touch Amazon image files" rule wherever/whenever possible.

Modifying the start-up initialization files is very serious business on a Kindle system.
That is a "last resort" type of modification. Button add-ins now use various other methods to avoid any such image modification.

In the works:
Someday, RSN, the 'core' of the kual-system will be publicly introduced.
Those 'core' services will start life with a way to track and properly account for any needed changes to the Amazon image files.
And button configurations.
And inter-button communications.
And ... well, a lot of things that are in the 'core' of a real 'system'.
