Details

(Whiteboard: [nsbeta3-])

We need to have a way to send out "quit-application" notification to registered observer when closing down the last window. A potential place to do this may be in the nsIWindowMediator service. See bug 33986 for references.
we actually need this under any circumstance when the app starts to close. I'll try to figure out where this is.

which features/bugs depend upon this?
I may be misinterpreting this, but a quick search turned up these bugs, perhaps relevant: bug 28385 Alert user before Mozilla exit if files are still downloading bug 34151 When closing windows on quit, should close in front-to-back bug 48333 ask for quit confirmation if form has been edited
It seems mail is doing the right thing at shutdown isn't it? (That was the topic of another bug.) Do we need this right now?
Whiteboard: [b3 need info]
What we have in mailnews isn't an ideal solution. We should have a more generic mechanism.
That sounds like something that should be FUTURE. If you disagree, please explain why this would be a P1 or P2 bug.

We do this in globalOverlay.js in goQuitApplication(). Is that sufficient?
