 It may be my fault :-((in explanation)but I mean the following:
1. destroy - is a dirty exit method: it simply calls gtk_main_quit()
2. delete - is a right exit method: it SAVEs user's application data
            AND exit (or return false and so exit through destroy_cb).
'Quit' menu item should(must) ensure right exit method(if user
select 'Quit'menu item his data(work) must not be discarted) - so
'Quit' should(must) "call" (one way or another) delete method (and NOT
destroy).
