Hey,
with this nice new menuebar I noticed that you can´t close only on window, if you have more than one open. You have to close all or nothing. A button under "Minefield -> Close window" would be helpful.

Reproducible: Always

That's done by the close button of the OS (top right). And ctrl-w also works. And the system-menu. The design is not finished yet, but the point is simplifying the menus. You can also note that there's no close-tab entry in the popdown menu either (most users got confused between close-tab, close-window and exit anyway).

Note that there is still the old menubar available, which you can see by pressing alt or F10 (like Intern Explorer). What you see coming out of the button is *not* the menubar, but a simplified interface.

Closing as worksforme, although the design might still change a bit, it's not definitive, and entries can still be added or removed.

oh, and alt-F4 also works.

yes the most I knew before.. but there isn´t the close button (top right) anymore, if I´ve enabled the new menubar. So i´ve searched for another button which I´ve not found.

It's not finished yet - see <https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Projects/3.7_and_4.0_Theme_and_UI_Revamp/Direction_and_Feedback> for a hint how it will (might) look.
