Probably in Windows too. I *don't* want to close the window -- except when I'm closing the last tab. And I *never* want to keep a window after closing the last tab in it. I am well aware of the gestures for closing the window. (Ctrl-Shift-W is another, and it works on all systems.) Ctrl-W used to do exactly what I want: close the current tab, and if it was the last, then close the window also. The new behaviour turns the last tab into a special case that requires a different gesture. That's what's driving me to rage (or was, anyway, before I reluctantly changed my prefs to avoid madness).
