I read the OP's question a little differently. I think the OP wants some
way to tell GnuCash, "When I click the "Close" button, I don't want the
currently open tab to close." In other words, I don't think it's about
what happens when GC reopens, it's about having GC ignore a button click
that the user didn't mean to make.

I can sympathize: It took me a while to learn that the Close button
doesn't close the program, as I would have expected, and even now every
once in a  while I close a tab when I wanted to close the program.
(Close buttons on a tab should close that tab; a close button not on a
tab should close the program -- or so it seems to me.)

But that's how GC works, and we just have to learn it. I didn't post an
answer earlier because I don't think there's any way to change this
behavior.

One thing that might help the OP, at least in Windows, is never to sue
the Close button but instead close a tab (when desired) with Ctrl+W and
close the program (if desired) with Alt+F4.
