It is a good idea.  However, the dialog functions in Emacs can't currently do 
this in a generic way (that is from elisp).

Close is not a good word.  You close a dialog and a frame, but you quit or 
exit the application.

So IMHO "Close without Saving" should be "Exit without Saving" and "Save" 
should be "Save and Exit" or prehaps "Save marked and Exit" (if indeed that is 
what Save does, it isn't clear).
