FS#738 - awesome should close all applications before exiting
User who did this - Gregor Best (farhaven)

----------
Also, the precedence is kinda wrong. It's not Awesome that is closing anything. It's your 
X server shutting down because something like `exec awesome` was the last thing in your 
xsession/xinitrc. IMHO, it'd be horrible if Awesome closed windows "it opened" 
(which is also wrong, the clients returned by client.get() could equally as well have 
existed before Awesome was started or they could have been started from another machine 
on the network). That'd make things like

   while true;
       awesome
   done

as the last thing in the xinitrc (for crash recovery/debugging/whatever you 
fancy) a horrible mess to use. If you _really_ want to have all clients killed 
when Awesome exits, it's just a matter of a few lines of Lua in your rc.lua, 
but I (which doesn't represent the official Awesome statement in any way) am 
totally against this. It's way too much interference into other apps.
