That would mean, for instance, that if (as I do) I have a data entry
area into which the user has typed a load of stuff, and I want them not
to lose that if they close the window, I'd have to be more or less
sending every keystroke to the backend. Remember, once they click on
the little red +, the window is going away whether I like it or not.

Personally I prefer a more pragmatic approach.
