Bug ID: 472163
Summary: RFE: ability to force close window from decoration
buttons
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 5.27.6
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: decorations
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: r...@alum.mit.edu
Target Milestone: ---
The Close Window button appears to only send a request to the application to
close; if the application is not responsive, it waits for a while before
presenting a force close dialog. I've also seen at least one case of an
application apparently accepting the request but not handling it; as a result,
I have to manually kill the app. I'd like a button available to force close a
window (and kill the underlying application if it's local) immediately.
This does not need to be on the titlebar by default, as obviously it's
dangerous and risks data loss, but it would be useful to have it available. If
the application is that badly hung, I probably do want to kill it immediately
rather than risk further loss.
