I'll answer on this one.  It would make sense to have "Discard",
"Save", "Cancel" if the question was "There are some unsaved changes
in this document.  What do you want to do with these changes?"

I.e. it must be clear that "Discard" or "Save" is about _changes_,
whereas "Cancel" is about the action of closing.  

It's very hard to achieve that all this is easily understood for the
user, IMHO.

Cheers,
