 Closing window with IM is quite awful.

 It is closed automaticaly '''without demand''', unaskly & unsolicitly.
 Even if I am writting to it, it breaks & deletes my message which I am
 writtig just at the moment. So my unsent but partially written message is
 lost. (It is the better case.)

 When I was away & someone written me, my window manager show me window
 borders to position it, but when I place it, it is closed & I do not know,
 who was written me.

 In my opinion: window '''must not''' be anytime closed automaticaly.

 Other IM clients never close it arrogantly without user '''explicit
 command'''. They delete its content after closing it '''by user''' only.
 User can set time after which its content is deleted after last closing.
