I can tell you what I do to stop the nuisances.  In about:config, I did

dom.disable_window_onbeforeunload -> true

I had high hopes for this one, but it doesn't seem to stop the annoying
"Are you sure you want to leave" prompts. Do you have anything for that
pestilence?

The word "window" in those settings refers to a popup window, and those
do get blocked.  I have not seen a "Must you leave?" prompt for a long
time.  I do not know how to block that, unless it is something that
Adblock Plus can block itself or with the adjunct extension Element
Hiding Helper for Adblock Plus, in which case you need to get the
address where that prompt comes from and add the block manually.

Not sure what the difference is between a "window" and a "prompt." To
me, they look the same except for the size and the absence of menus etc.
on prompts. Also, CTRL-U is ineffective on prompts, so I can't tell what
source code produced them without dismissing them first and examining
the originating page.

The prompt is not a window. Its element name is message box (I think). It could be that Fanboy's Annoyance List has something that stops that kind of thing, but not sure about that.
