Mind I think save dialogs are treated special on the mac at shutdown time
I'm not aware of this nor have I seen any special code in the frameworks (MacApp, PowerPlant) to deal with it.
Does Squeak handle AEQuit? and the other basic Apple Events?
In multiple windowing apps, the close box just closes the window. In single window only apps, the close box mimics the Quit menu. An example of this is the Chooser windows or the TCP/IP control panel.
I can see that a "force quit without saving" option would be useful but should not be the default behavior. This could be implemented by holding down the option/alt key when closing the window or qutting... a feature common on the Mac: the option/alt key enhancing a given behavior. Unfortunately, I don't think this carries through as well on Windows or *nix.
I thought checking for the need to save was a part of any Quit processing, regardless of when or who initiates it.
