Hi,
I was also quite sad that they removed the button, it doesn't make sense
to me, but what one can do. The "workaround" is to right click above the
window title, which will bring the standard window's system menu.
About the hang, it depends, it can sometimes just wait for the server
response, sometimes can be stuck on a mutex lock. It would be nice to
have cancellable locks, which might be doable, with a bit of effort.
Canceling waits for the server response is supposed to be better in
3.4.0 (aka the current development version).
Bye,
Milan
