A confirmation box would be an irritation but what about a little lock symbol that you can toggle on/off on the tab itself. That would make it where the tab wont close unless it is toggled to unlock. It should protect from window closings too not just tab closings so that way sites like Pandora or Rhapsody that you want open through the whole web browsing experience stay open and running. I find it is a bigger hassle to go find what tabs you didn't mean to close than to actually have it be protected.
