I've heard of that being done before.  It makes sense.

How silly an idea would it be for the browser itself to send one last

(sorry, this message was floating around in the rafters and never made
it to

One solution I failed to mention was you can try to trap the window

this
for the reasons I described earlier.

Thanks again!
