Just wanted to confirm this is happening in other apps, Pidgin in my case.

Pidgin 2.4.1
Kernel 2.6.24.19.21 (latest)
Ubuntu 8.04

I closed Pidgin using the right-click menu in the panel. After a bit it hadn't closed and I was presented with a box saying the program couldn't shut down, would I like to "wait" or "force quit". I chose "force quit" and locked the computer. Came back 14 hours later and Pidgin is still running, shows as "uninterruptible" in System Monitor".

Tried:
kill -9 pid
killall pidgin
Kill from System Monitor
End from System Monitor

All have no effect
