Having just sampled a few Linux apps, the most common behaviour for the close decoration seems to be to close without warning if there is no unsaved work, or to close with warning otherwise. At first glance, the CCP4i main window never has an unsaved state, so I was going to disagree with you. However, if you have a task window open (which may have unsaved program parameters entered in it), then closing the main window also closes the task window, losing the info you were entering. So I would vote in favour of a confirm option. Or even better, close automatically if no other windows are open, or ask for confirmation if there are any other windows open (but the benefit of this refinement is marginal - only worth doing if it is really easy).
