This seems to be a misunderstanding.
The request seems to be for a hint on strict ./. weak MDI, ie. whether closing
the (last) window will also close the application, where "close to systray"
would be a common implementation.

The killhelper works different by pinging the window and offering to kill it on
no echo.

The original request is bait for a flamewar (apple has strict SDI ever ;-) and
actually does require a hint from the client to be done for half baked SDI
systems.

In case this suggest to "minimize to systray" - this doesn't cut it, because
closing is not minimizing (for the latter, the WM just takes the window out of
sight, while upon closing, the client will really destroy the window. free
resources, alter processing etc.) ie. eg. make amarok minimize to systray would
likely break amarok's current systray behavior.
