I got no problem with a close button. But I really think being able to MIDDLE-CLICK the window icon to close it (like one can do with tabs in web browsers) would be a huge boon for usability. It's a simple thing to figure out too because every one is used to it from web browser use.

I'd suggest not to make a small "X", it should be large enough to be easily targeted with a clumsy pointing device such as my hand. Using the window controls from the previews is not a good idea i'm afraid, it would be better to show the previews without chrome altogether, it only confuses and has nothing to do with the content i'm previewing.
