KDE4 applications do not close properly

[Johnny Levai]

I'm using Kubuntu 8.04 and I just updated to KDE 4.1. When I close Kate, they gui dissapears, but I can still find this with "ps ax": "11350 ? S 0:00 /usr/lib/kde4/bin/kate --use". That means it didn't close properly. That prevents me from starting it again.

Btw, it only happens when I use the X button on the titlebar, it closes properly when use File -> Quit. I heard that it happens with a lot KDE 4.1 apps, so it must be a Kwin bug instead.

I mark the bug 253912 as duplicate because at session start, kde4 use --use option of kate to reuse any existing session. If there is a kate process after closing the window it would start a new kate at the new session.
