From Bugzilla Helper:

BuildID:    2002053012

If I initiate the closing of a browser window containing a form I have made
changes to, I should be offered a chance to cancel the close.  In nearly all
such cases, the close is an accident - and Mozilla is about to throw away
several minutes of typing.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Fill out a large, complicated, form such as this one.  Then hit ^W, if you have
Unix reflexes, or miss the "maximize" button by 1/16" inch, or anything else
that could accidentally close data.

Actual Results:  Loss of every last bit of data filled in on a form.

Expected Results:  Confirmation before discarding data.
