As far as the user is concerned, there are his desktop icons, and his
file manager -- they are separate, even if they really aren't -- which
is why IMHO, it should be Exit, not Close. To accomodate both users, Gmc
should have a preference "Use desktop icons", and if that preference
isn't selected, then Exit should actually exit the app (i.e. end the
process), and if it is, then it just closes the window. Of course, you
would need a close as well, if more than one window is displayed -- and
it would also have to make sure that if there is only one normal window,
and the above preference is disabled, then it exits the app as well.
