Hi all Agree +1 Eitan's comment.
A person that can use a mouse and see the window buttons to close is redundant the close button in the GUI, but if I was a beginner I don't know that there is these ways of closing this dialogs and less I don't know that with esc, or alt +f4 I can close it. Anyway, I always look for the close button when I finish a configuration. I always used the alt + f4 for closing applications, and esc for cancel (I don't know why) :-).

One of the main areas of resistance to the removal of such buttons the last time it was considered was feedback from assistive technology users, who (albeit in an unscientific straw poll) expressed an overall preference for retaining the explicit Close button, in addition to the window manager Close button and associated keyboard shortcut. With GNOME 3.0 now just a couple of blocks away, if not quite around the corner just yet, I was wondering if this is still the consensus? Or have AT improvements or any other factors now reduced the need for explicit Close buttons in instant-apply dialogs?
