You're not supposed to use that menu option ;)

But I agree, this has always been distracting. Now we actually do  
support the window close request in the Etoys image. It works fine on  
Linux, when you close the Etoys window it will ask if you want to  
really quit and then you can say yes/no. We just have to find out how  
to coerce the Mac VM to also issue that event when clicking the  
window close box or choosing the quit menu item. Cc'ing John to  
explain ...
