I think Patrick's got a valid point here. If we're talking about an actual browser window (and not something like a modal that's actually HTML markup), the user should know how to close it. Otherwise how would they ever close any browser window or tab? I think whether they're using File -> Quit, or CTRL+W, or whatever else, they have to know how to close a browser window in order to be on the web to begin with.
