And how do you EXPLICITY quit the application? Because the interface
for window management(on windows box) is three buttons "minimize",
"maximize", and "destroy". If closing the window only "hides" the
window then you are just "managing" a window's "visibility". We are
talking about destroying GUI processes here.
