I take it then that you've been using a custom panel configuration?
Because in the default Ubuntu config, the top left corner has the
Applications menu in it, and the top right corner has the Session menu
in it.
In other words, the "throw it in the corner and click to close the
window" capability is not a feature of Ubuntu pre 9.10.
Our position on this is that the corner is reserved for access to
applications, or shutting down the machine. If you want to close the
window you need to click on the button for closing the window.
