This is definitely not true, since applications are supposed to ask you to save if you have unsaved work. As far as I can tell, this holds true for all applications that ship in the Ubuntu cd.
My suggestion: fix the issue as per the bug's description and file bug reports to misbehaving applications. Workarounds for broken applications shouldn't impact well-behaved ones.
