Cocoa Application expects a Quit AppleEvent, not a sigterm.
SIGTERM will kill the app and it will not have any chance to save the
edited document. Try with TextEdit if you don't belive it ;-)
Actually no, since the default kill signal is TERM, apps will be
allowed to prompt to save if necessary. This assumes the app is
handling that signal properly. We could send KILL or ABRT and that
would just end the processes w/o any save options.

And that would be a great way to lose data, if any of the
applications getting killed had unsaved documents.
