Bug Description
If tasks in the terminal are executing, the terminal app should continue tasks in the background when its window is closed. This way users can safely close the window and open it to come back to it later. If the task completes, the app should quit completely.
This helps further push us into the app-resumes-
If developers want an option to kill tasks when the window is closed, that could be a possibility.

So, in this way, you just simply mask close button as minimize button? And user can much more likely to forgot about running processes in background (in minimized terminals)? Isn't it in a direct opposite of your argument, that minimized apps consume resources?
