Hmm, but at least on some such systems applications are never supposed to "exit" by themselves, and definitely not offer the user any way inside the application to "exit". Instead the systems have some standard uniform way to leave applications (leaving it running in the background, but the user need not be aware of that), or switch applications; and then when returning to the application it is supposed to be (or seem to be) in the same state as when the user left it. And it's the system that asks the application to quit if it is in the "background" and resources are getting scarce (and then forcefully kills it if it doesn't obey). Not only mobile systems like Android and iOS use this paradigm, but also Mac OS X is going in this direction. (But then, adapting LO to that will take a while, and there are more urgent modernizations needed on the Mac front...) --tml _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
