Yes, Richard was right. In your main.cs file your create the MainWindow simply 
with
new MainWindow();
but don't save it in a variable. The GC thinks it is now eligible for 
collection since there are no other references to it anymore.
I had already committed a fix a while back that should have prevented visible 
top-level widgets from being collected, but I didn't cover every possibility. 
I just committed another fix which makes this works. Thanks for the report!
