Yes, you're probably right then, since we send close event by ourselves. I
think, it's quite easy to test this as well — just left one client untouched
and another one with modifications before logging out, cancel the shutdown in
the latter and see what happens. I believe, you have tried the initial version
of the patch, did you happen to follow this scenario?
