That is intentional, the idea being that there really shouldn't be
difference between closing the last window and closing any other
window.  This way you can be certain that the session won't be affected
when you just close a window¹ and the session will be saved when you
explicitly quit.


1. Just imagine having a window full of tabs and you're assuming the
window in front of you is the last one, close the window expecting the
current load of tabs being saved in the session -- only to soon notice
that somehow, somewhere you had misplaced another window.  Whoops, bye
bye session.
