(Sub-) Window closing should be made in a standard way

[Matti Tahvonen]

Closing windows on server side is currently from 4.0/millstone era when windows where mainly native windows opened by script in "main window". On close server sends sub windows uidl with attribute "invisible". Should instead send parent windows uidl, without removed/closed subwindow ( in the same way as it works in other containers ).

Note that with current "native windowing"/"windows that are iviews in client" we cannot close them from server side.

Replying to Matti Tahvonen:

... Should instead send parent windows uidl, without removed/closed subwindow ( in the same way as it works in other containers ).

This does not sound efficient (re-rendering whole main window to remove one subwindow?). IMO current(?) implementation is better - the closed window is just removed, the new render of the main window will not contain the closed window in it's uidl.

Not a problem anymore with subtree caching.

closing is possible atm, but it happens in a bit weird way.
