At least in my test build of 1.4.6, don't know if that already was the thing in 1.4.4. But it should at least be possible to quit from that stage directly instead of having to resize back up to be able to quit. (And thanks for the moc sugguestion, will look into it out of personal interest ;)) Right now I just want to push the update to 1.4.6 into the pool and that's the reason why I went through all the old bugreports to see if some of them has been fixed in the meantime by upstream, so I won't address this right now, but I want at least try to think about it.
