Comment #77 on issue 13 by random832: Closing last tab also closes window
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=13

@iambob - the developers' perspective seems to be that they consider a tab  
close
button to be a "standard control" - if that is to be the case, it should  
act the same
in all browsers. Or maybe they should change Chromium to behave differently  
in other
ways? For example, maybe require double-clicking to open links, or put the  
scroll bar
on the opposite side of the window. Or reverse the meaning of the  
ctrl-mouse-wheel to
be down to increase text size, up to decrease it (just when the other  
browsers have
_finally_ standardized on the opposite). Or maybe get rid of the  
right-click menu.

There is no need to be gratuitously different, especially when it  
inconveniences
users. There are already two perfectly viables way to close the window: the  
close box
in the upper right corner, and CTRL-W [which no-one is advocating getting  
rid of,
@gaston @igitur...]. We don't need an extra button to do the same thing,  
particularly
when no other browser has it.
