Bug Description

Reproduce:
1. Write something in Eclipse. For example, a java app. Don't save yet.
2. Log off.
3. Eclipse won't ask you if you want to save the changes.
4. java app gone.

It's the same for other apps. For example: scite, geany (text editors).

Tested on Jaunty.

I reproduce this in Eclipse Juno downloaded separately in KDE in Ubuntu 12.04. This might be caused by KDE/Gnome session handling rather than a bug in Eclipse. If Eclipse's own window is closed manually, the behavior is correct.
