Brian is correct, have your application implement Window.ClosingHandler and/or Window.CloseHandler in order to do any clean up work when the user navigates away from your site. Keep in mind that:1. These events are called when the user closes the browser or tab as well as when the user navigates away from your site. 2. No user-interface components may be displayed during this event (see link below).
Instead of displaying UI during close, you may want to consider cleaning up any session data and having the user re-authenticate when they return.
