According to

Meego appears to have a "close" button. Please tell me if I
misunderstood that text and those figures.

This document is referring to the application window, not a dialog.
I have a MeeGo tablet with BibleTime running on it. No dialog box in
any application has a close icon in top right. Once opened, the
Bookshelf manager dialog cannot be closed in MeeGo.<br>

The current Bookshelf Manager GUI works well on Windows, KDE and Gnome
2. Gnome 3 has a bug which prevents it from working, so this is not an
issue we must work around in BibleTime. </pre>

Gnome 3 has received several bug reports about not having a close
icon at the top right of dialogs. They have marked other bug reports
as a duplicate of this one.<br>

Last February they decided to triage (not fix) this bug. They
consider Gnome 3 to be working properly. Here are two quotes from
the bug report about the Firefox 4 About dialog. They consider the
bug to be in Firefox 4 for not having a close button (bottom of
dialog)<br>

Yeah, I was wrong about that - in investigation, GNOME 3 simply does not
include close buttons on any dialogs. (It's hacked up in the window manager
theme, in a way I still haven't quite figured out, so I didn't see the change
go in, but it is intentional.)
So really, the bug here is simpler - if Firefox is going to mark the about
dialog as a dialog in GNOME, it needs to be closable without window manager
assistance.

from the user. Firefox 3.6 had a close button, so this would be a regression
in Firefox 4.</pre></span></span>--------------------------
