you might be the only one bothered by this, yes.
in general, if i want the user to be able to close the movie using the
close button in the title bar, i don't mind if they quit using the
escape key too. i guess i'm not too worried about them accidentally quitting.
but on the mac os, you don't quit an application by hitting the close
button on the title bar, you have to hit command-q, or hit quit under
the file menu. you can close the window but that doesn't quit the app.
so if you want that functionality on the mac, you'd have to make your
own title bar anyway, and fake it. so maybe you don't have to do that on
the mac?
