I agree.

What I don't want is an app that has no way for me to quit it, other than 
opening a shell and killing it (or the amazing ksysguard).

My pet peeve with this issue is kmail 1.x that used to close its window when I 
Ctrl+Q'ed it and then continue running in the background, indefinitely. If I 
hadn't been burned by this before, I'd have been a lot more receptive of the 
idea.
