If you've ever tried hanging a non-permanent dialogue box off a menu tree you will be most pleased to hear about such a message - normally the WIMP closes (but doesn't delete) your window without telling you *anything* about it. The only way (previously) to detect this was to continuously poll the window to see when it is shut...
