I believe it's possible to disable onclose entirely (can't remember how,
but I'm sure I saw it mentioned once alongside the "disable window.open"
thing).
Are there any legitimate uses for onclose()? Is there any reason that I
shouldn't turn off onclose for all sites all the time? And if so, should
mozilla.org consider making onclose disabled the default? (I doubt, for
some reason, that Netscape/AOL would ever consider doing this in their
branded browser...)
