I have the exact same problem, and I resolve it by apologizing to the
users who report it, and explaining that as far as I know, there's no
real choice in Java on the platform. :(
Yes, it peeves me (and my users), but I've found no workarounds in a
good bit of searching. My best approach is to provide a 'Don't show
me this anymore' checkbox, and if the user has selected it (i.e. has
theoretically made a knowledgable choice), always save-and-close,
which can be done w/o queuing a QUIT message to the UI thread.
Anyone else who has a workaround, it'd be great to hear...
