Wrong. KOffice provides this. Try "File/Close".

Feel free to report usability bugs at http://bugs.kde.org, when you have a precise
suggestion on how it can be fixed (as with this case: always showing the header/footer
frames - it's basically about changing the default, no?).
We developers don't necessarily see those problems...
