 Although it would seem rather Sugar-unlike (and tends to be rather un-
 xterm like for most xterms as well), Terminal should warn if applications
 are open within a Terminal session before exiting.

 Otherwise this could lead to data loss, which may confuse kids.

 Reproduction:
  1. Run "nano" in a Terminal session.  Start typing something.
  2. Quit out of the Terminal activity.
  3. Resume the session.  The nano data which fit onscreen will sort-of be
 there, but you will be back at a shell prompt.
