Not really. C-d is just End-of-file. Any application --such as an
interpreter-- expecting commands on standard input would normally exit
because there is nothing left to process. This would make the existing
terminal emulator also exit, unless told otherwise (i.e. with -hold in
xterm or rxvt-unicode).
In rare cases, you'll need to kill the process holding your terminal
(window). I don't feel it to be a burden, since it is rare. Some
people (including me) don't even have a window manager able to forcibly
close a window.
However, here is a patch (against the tabbed perl extension distributed
with rxvt-unicode 9.06) that would bind shift-up to destroying the
current tab:
--- /usr/lib/urxvt/perl/tabbed 2009-08-11 18:15:22.000000000 +0200
