debugging pydb prevents ddd from closing

[themusicgod1]

1) Run ddd to debug pydb
2) Attempt to leave ddd by clicking on 'x'.
3) This fails(you can quit any time, but you can 'never' leave), but it seems to leave the debugged pydb program.

This is ok if you run only one pydb deep. But if you're trying to debug pydb...having what happens to ddd happen to the bottom level pydb doesn't seem to be a very good thing. For the moment, this is a difference between ddd running on pydb and virtually any other program, and it's behaviour that you would probably not expect. I would argue this is a (minor) bug, since it is not so consistent with what you would expect with other programs, in that there does not appear to be enough of a boundary between the debugging environment and the debugged environment.
