That's what I thought too until recently. I thought the behavior was so 
universal that I didn't think twice about putting a "close this stack" 
handler into the card script of my (no-titlebar) About box. A Windows 
customer got stuck, believed the whole app had frozen, couldn't get out, 
force-quit the app, and reported a "critical" bug.

So we added an "OK" button at the bottom. Sigh.
