This isn't a duplicate of #103452, although both one are narrowly interconnected.
If non-scripted window/tab has been closed by javascript, user loses history of
this window, where could be present important information.
Windows/tabs opened by user, not via javascript, should'nt be closed whithout
user's consent. Both NS4 and MSIE require confirmation, and I would Mozilla to
have same behavior.
I think, if true patching for this bug is difficult, requiring confirmation to
close scripted window is lesser of two evils in comparison with closing
non-scripted window without consent.

Yep. Requests about confirmation before closing the window are duped to that bug.
