Current/Missing Behavior

Up until 0.67.1 with nw2 disabled when closing a window by clicking on the "x" button on the window bar would trigger the same close events as pressing CMD/CTRL+W or clicking on Close option inside the File menu. On 0.68.0 and newer this is not the case anymore. This is not the problem with nw2. Only when nw2 is disabled.

Expected/Proposed Behavior

Closing the window using the "x" button in the window bar should trigger the same close events.

Additional Info

It should be simple to reproduce. Just create a close event that should be triggered when closing the windo w and notice how it is not being triggered when closing the window using the "x" button located on the window's top bar.

Given the major slowdown with the use of the nw2 and scripting (see #7 the fix for this is a must since the slowdown makes nw2 currently not comparable/usable when compared to nw1).

Also, I just realized that this is a duplicate of #7981, so I am closing this one.

OK, so I did a bit more digging. It appears that after 0.67.1 (0.68.0 and onwards) clicking on the "x" to close window does not trigger the same close actions as pressing CMD/CTRL+W (or selecting "Close" option from the File menu). This appears to be the issue, so mechanisms that should be invoked when pressing window close simply aren't. Hence, everything is stuck inside pd-l2ork. Pressing CMD/CTRL+W does invoke those mechanisms and therefore things work just fine. This is only when nw2 is disabled (when it is enabled, it works fine both ways) and only on 0.68.0 and onwards.
