Well, now that I've added some logging I see that the attribute is in fact
set, but it appears to be false for every window when I go to close it,
even the Scratchpad windows.
Also, and I'm not sure if this is related or something else I've done
wrong, but when I close a Scratchpad window I get the folllowing errors in
my qtile.log: (Apologies for the straight paste, but it was smaller than
the files and for some reason I can't submit pastes to any of my normal
pastes sites on my current network.)
