Why? What spec fires 'close' at Window objects?

Hmm… I was looking at http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#event-handlers-on-elements,-document-objects,-and-window-objects and it lists the "close" event as an event that must be supported by all Document and Window objects" but I suppose nothing interesting is fired there on the web as I was also reading https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Reference/Events/close_event which is for XUL. Sorry about that.
