When using client-side decorations, the expectation is that the WM does not add any controls at all and the application can add as many close buttons as it sees fit (read: one). Though to be honest, a simple dialog is not too interesting here - if all you want is a titlebar with a close button, it's perfectly fine to just assume that the WM will give you that. CSD makes more sense(*) for windows with more functions, by for instance allowing you to visually balance the UI by putting an "Open" button on the left and a "Close" button on the right. (*) Compared to the simple-dialog case, not SSD in general
