100% agreed. Although I don't even necessarily think that having an icon there is necessary at all; I'd take all those stock icons out of the standard buttons were it up to me. With proper localization, having the icons there don't add much.
But I don't feel that strongly about it, so assuming that others feel strongly that the icons should remain, I'd agree that the "Close" button in this context should include a "Yes" icon or something similar-looking rather than something that could be confused with the "Cancel" icon.
