Bug Description

0.92+devel (b3d59cc810, 2018-12-09, custom)
Linux 4.19.4-arch1-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Nov 23 09:06:58 UTC 2018 x86_64 GNU/Linux

1) Open Inkscape
2) "File > New" or "File Open"
3) Close first window ("File > Close" or click "X" in title bar)

Result: Closes both windows, even if the second window has unsaved changes

Expected: Only first window closes

Additional information: "File > Quit" prompts if there are unsaved changes in window 2, but still closes the window without saving if user hits "Cancel" (should leave the window open).

Confirmed on Windows 10.

As I overlooked it initially I'll point it out again:
This happens when closing the initially opened Inkscape window, i.e. the first window that opened. If closing windows/documents spawned from this window later-on the described behavior is not triggered.

Cannot reproduce this on Inkscape 1.0alpha (4855a8a2). Opened a file in the first window, then opened another one using File -> Recent Files, then closed the first window. The second file remained open.

Has this been fixed in the meantime, or is this specific to certain desktop environments?

Assuming this was only an issue on Inkscape master, closing.
