Other Windows GUI applications do not behave like that: they will ask you whether to save unsaved changes etc. Also, an application that is stuck in an unresponsive situation will not react to the click on the [X] button, but will instead cause the OS to display the "program is not responding" dialog. I don't think Emacs should break all these user expectations about GUI program's behavior.
