Yes, but how exactly should that be done? I mean, the application itself 
is able to ignore normal signals. So when it doesn't quit and, like 
Transmission, simply hides the window and keeps doing its thing; should 
that be considered a bug in Transmission? Or will the launcher wait a 
certain amount and then kill it, or what?  In the case with 
Transmission, when you really tell it to quit, it will display a dialog 
asking you to wait for status updates to be sent, etc. This can take 
some time. How will this be handled?
