Normally, a sheet must be closed using a push button. It should be considered a modal dialog, involving a question or a choice. > There is a Close button in the window.

Not for a modal dialog (which a sheet is). When you open the prefs in iTunes, you don't close the window by the close button, same for a save as dialog (even as a sheet). > In this case, the users are (attempting to) close the sheet window > (but not the document window) by clicking the red close button in the > title bar.
